Costa Rica Lilo Microlot
In stock
On the banks of the Tarrazu River, we cordially introduce you to the Lilo Microlot. Lilos farm is a proud partner of Hacienda La Minita. This beautiful coffee selection is comprised of two varietals including Caturra 11 and Hibrido Tico. Grown at higher elevations of 1524 meters cherry development is slower than other coffees in the area allowing for deeper ripening, producing a richer and sweeter cup profile.
Once cherry's are collected, they are transported down to La Minita's washing station, where coffee is processed in the traditional washed method, and cryo sealed in 35 Kilo Bags (half bags) to help insure freshness and quality.
If your looking for a unique Costa Rican experience at an affordable price, this cup is for you. Sweeter cup flavors including watermelon, dried berries, and citrus with lingering undertones of milk chocolate.
