We’re thrilled to bring you Especiales, a unique coffee from our longtime partners, the Ureña family in Costa Rica. We've been working with them since 2019, and they never cease to amaze us with their innovative approach to coffee processing. Especiales is a standout example of their craftsmanship.

This particular coffee is a Caturra variety, known for its smooth, rich flavor without any astringency. What makes Especiales truly special is its processing method. The Ureña family uses a technique they call "special fermentation," which is essentially an anaerobic honey process. After depulping, the coffee is sealed in bags to ferment without oxygen before being laid out on drying tables. This anaerobic step often results in sweeter flavors, which shines through in every cup of Especiales.

When you brew this coffee, you’ll notice sweet, berry-like notes with hints of grape and delicate florality. It's a delightful experience that won’t last long—Especiales will only be available for about a month. So, don’t miss your chance to enjoy this extraordinary coffee!
