How to enjoy this coffee

1. Know your coffee's origin

Costa Rica Fernando Cordero for espresso originates from Fernando Cordero and is processed by Luis Campos, a true pioneer of anaerobic fermentation. Luis has revolutionized the coffee industry with his work, being the first to experiment with this unique fermentation method. He owns both a wet and dry mill where he processes coffee from his own farm, as well as from smallholder farmers whose plantations are situated at altitudes of around 1800 meters. By collaborating with these farmers, Luis ensures they receive better compensation for their high-quality coffee, helping elevate their livelihoods.

2. The anaerobic process

Anaerobic processing is a fermentation method where coffee cherries are sealed in barrels, creating an oxygen-free environment that enhances the development of unique flavors. This process helps extract the deepest, most vibrant flavors from the coffee, creating a cup that’s full-bodied with rich, complex notes. The anaerobic fermentation applied to Costa Rica Fernando Cordero gives the coffee its distinctive cinnamon and dark chocolate flavors, making it a truly standout choice for espresso lovers.

By roasting it specifically for espresso, we ensure that the coffee’s body and natural sweetness come to the forefront, delivering a satisfying, full-bodied shot with medium acidity.
