The Las Lajas Black Diamond Natural comes to us from third-generation coffee producers, Oscar and Francisca Chacón in the Central Valley of Costa Rica. The Chacón’s continuously strives to perfect their coffee through experimentation and innovation. This devotion has resulted in the creation of their Diamond processing technique. The secret to this process is the slow drying and rotation of the cherries, which results in a truly unique and vibrant flavor profile, and the Las Lajas Black Diamond is a perfect example of this.
Bursting with tropical, juicy sugars. It kicks off with punchy bright Strawberry Hi-Chew that tingles on the palate before layering into the complex tropical flavors of Hawaiian Punch. As it settles the bright, bold sugars begin to mellow into the gentle floral sweetness of sugar cane. A truly exceptional representation of naturally processed coffees and perfect for anyone looking for a bit of adventure in their cup.
