"This coffee has a peachy fruitiness with a light, tea-like body. I really enjoy how balanced it is. Bright without being overly acidic, with subtle chocolate notes on the finish. Its elegant profile makes each sip inviting and leaves you wanting another. If you're looking to explore more fruit-forward coffees, this is a great place to start. I especially enjoy it iced, perfect for the summer heat."

we’ve met Alex Ureña face to face, here is our story with him

In the spring of 2025, Grant, Jonathan, and I spent close to a week in Costa Rica with Perry and the team from Selva Coffee visiting farms in the Tarrazú region. One of those days we spent with Alex Ureña, touring his family's operation at Santa Teresa 2000 in the Los Santos area of Tarrazú. We also got to meet his father Roger briefly during the trip. This wasn't just a son doing his dad's job, this was a son who had grown to love an industry that his dad was also a part of.

Costa Rica

Costa Rica knows what it takes to produce high-quality beans and has been doing so for over 200 years. Rich volcanic soil and diverse terrain create bright, clean cups ranging from Tarrazú's bold aromas to Occidental's fruity peach notes. But it's their cutting-edge research in coffee that really sets Costa Rica apart from the rest.
