LAS LAJAS - COSTA RICA

CHERRY BAKEWELL | FIG | GOLDEN RAISIN LAS LAJAS - COSTA RICA Another delicious release from Oscar and Francesca, full bodied with lingering jammy sweetness, it's a versatile cup that can be enjoyed with or without milk . Once harvested, cherries are delivered to the family’s mill in Sabanilla de Alajuela where they are floated using Penagos machines, pulped, and then sun-dried with mucilage on raised beds. The longer the cherries are dried, the darker the honey layer becomes. Once they reach the desired colour, the beans are moved to shaded patios to finish drying. Here, Oscar creates a signature bed of beans that is flipped when a crust forms as opposed to raked into rows like many other producers do. He believes this produces a more consistently dried lot.
