A hybrid of Sarchimor and Sudan Rume - a wild Ethiopian varietal known for its exceptional flavour - H1 is a varietal with amazing potential.
Following warm fermentation, this lot comes alive with tropical notes of papaya, passion fruit, and banana. On the palate, sparkling sweetness reminds us of grape soda or kombucha. Expect deep complexity, with lasting notes of cacao and raisin at it cools.
The West Valley is the most prominent coffee growing region in Costa Rica. Most of its coffees are grown under protective shade, and produced on fertile clay.
The mountainous landscape is dominated by three volcanoes and a gentle tectonic depression, while the Pacific weather patterns create well-defined dry and wet seasons.
Volcan Azul is located on the edges of the Poás Volcano. For 5 generations, the producers have continued making coffee with the objective in mind of achieving excellence and superior quality.
The descendants of the founders families are acquiring natural tropical forest in order to protect and preserve the environment, and to reduce air contamination and global warming. It is their way of contributing to a better future for the generations to come.



The process for this lot starts when cherries are still on the tree. By constantly measuring the Brix sugar content level, Alejo and his team seek to identify the ideal moment to pick the coffee. This lot underwent 'warm anaerobic' fermentation. The cherries are fermented in sealed tanks at a temperature of 21 degrees Celsius, approximately four degrees higher than usual. Fermentation takes five days, before the whole cherries are then dried for 5 days on patios, before a final stage of mechanical drying.
