Tasting Notes: Orange Marmalade - Milk Chocolate - Brown Sugar - Marzipan Medium- Light Roast Volcanic Views and Coffee Dreams: Unearthing Coffee Treasures in Costa Rica Located in the scenic West Valley region of Costa Rica, Allan Oviedo has been the proud owner of Don Joel Micromill for over a decade now, and manages farm operations together with his son Ignacio. Among ten siblings, Allan is one of five involved in the coffee industry. One of his brothers owns the neighboring farm and supplies specialty coffee to the Don Joel wet mill for processing. This is the third year we’ve brought coffees from Don Joel to the menu and this Chizo lot is one of two SL28 lots from this harvest season. Notably, over half of the coffee grown at Don Joel is this variety of Kenyan origin, also known simply as Kenia. In March 2023, Ruby Team Members Katy and Ashley had the pleasure of meeting Allan at Don Joel during their trip to Costa Rica. Here’s what they had to say: “We met Allan on an unusually rainy day just outside of Grecia, Costa Rica. Getting to the Don Joel farm and mill requires a truck, as the roads are steep and rocky, but the views are incredible. The farm is surrounded by magnificent landscape, sitting just below Volcan Poas and bordering Grecia Forest Reserve. The hills are covered in coffee trees, with many nearby farms owned by Allan’s siblings. We fell in love with Allan’s passion for sustainable farming and his coffee expertise. He is particularly proud of his Kenia variety, and his coffees routinely place in the Cup of Excellence, reflecting his hard work. We are so excited to bring these coffees to our menu. While favorites on the cupping table, knowing who cares for them makes them even more special.” This Chizo lot, like previous SL28 lots from Don Joel, is exceptionally fruity. What makes this one stand apart is clean, crisp, bright, sugary fruits and florals. 12 oz / 340 g. Orders placed by 4:00 p.m. on Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday will roast and ship the next day. Thank you! DOWNLOAD info sheets
