Brief introduction of Costa Rica:

Located on the fertile hills of the Poas volcano in the valley of central Costa Rica, Fenghuang Manor is a 100% village-grown coffee estate with a strong emphasis on the concept of environmentally friendly treatment (such as Rain Water to deal with coffee) and the production of organic compost raised by earthworms so that the seed value process is completely free of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. The landowner believes that organic farming is a better choice for environmental protection and the health of his family, and he still adheres to this belief even in the face of many technical and organizational challenges.

Fenghuang Manor is also the first manor in Central and South America to produce honey-treated and sun-cured coffee. The high-quality coffee it produces is very unique and its biggest feature is its amazing sweetness! The sweetness of coffee cherries can reach 21-22%. During the harvest season, using the treatment commonly used by the wine industry, only those with more than 20% sweetness will be exposed to the sun.

Black honey treatment (Black Honey Processed) is currently the most complex and difficult method of raw bean treatment, of which the most special is the coating on coffee beans, 100% of the mucus that originally belongs to the flesh is completely retained, then it is fermented naturally, and finally in the process of sun drying, it absorbs the full energy of sunlight to create a sweeter, richer taste, like molasses.

Treatment method: black honey treatment (Black Honey Processed)

Flavor description:

Mango, red wine sweetness, brown sugar, extremely bright acidity.
