Velvet
Named for its incredibly smooth and luxurious mouthfeel, Velvet is a standout offering from Carolez Zbinden in Carrizal de Alajuela, Costa Rica. This coffee is crafted from the high-quality Caturra variety, grown at 1,370 meters. The key to its texture is the White Honey Process, where minimal mucilage is left on the bean during drying, resulting in a clean sweetness without overwhelming fruitiness. Expect a wonderfully balanced and velvety cup profile, often showcasing notes of smooth Caramel, mild Citrus, and a delicate, lingering sweetness.
