The Cafe Vida is a beautiful balance between soft fruit notes and sweet, nutty pastry. Fresh apricot hits you up front, with a light sweetness and delicate acidity. The freshness evolves into warm, chewy monkey bread, complete with a citrus glaze and walnuts to tie it all together. This is a nuanced and approachable single origin, perfect for anyone who appreciates a balanced, lighter coffee. 

This coffee challenges the expectation that you can’t get washed-processed coffees from Costa Rica. Representing the work of hundreds of small-holding producers across 15 micromills, the partners who help us source this lot work closely with producers to put together consistent, high-quality lots of this washed coffee. This is a unique opportunity to taste the subtle nuance of the coffee grown in this region, without the influence of fermentation or other more adventurous processing methods.
