Corazon de Jesus - Costa Rica, Scenery | 200g

Extended Fermentation Natural, Typica, Lightest Roaster Influence - Best for Filter. Turbo-espresso or pourover

We're massive fans of the work of Jonny Alvarado and his mill - Corazón de Jesús. We're not alone in that - they've had many, many podium finishes in the Costa Rica Cup of Excellence, including 1st place washed and 3rd place honey/natural category in the most recent (2025) competition. We featured coffee from the Los Toños plot last year (and indeed, have more on the way this year) - as we buy more lots from Jonny we're going to add the abbreviation "CDJ" in the coffee name to indicate it's from his mill.

This Typica natural reposado lot really stood out on the cupping table when we had offer samples from Ally (the same table we selected the Don Senel Gesha) - it tasted like eating a handful of purple fruit pastilles. 

We're tasting: 
Process forward aromatics of milk chocolate, red wine & mixed berries. In the cup it's super sweet, with milk chocolate ganache, with hints of yoghurt coated banana chips, macerated forest fruits, and the lively bubblegum & berry notes of Beaujolais Nouveau, with a great texture and enduring sweetness.
