Costa Rica Aquiares Estate — Esperanza | African Washed

An award-winning farm, a rare hybrid varietal, and a process borrowed from the best in the world — this one is special. From the legendary Aquiares Estate in Turrialba, Costa Rica, this African Washed Esperanza is one of the most distinctive coffees in our current lineup. Managed by award-winning producer Diego Robelo, Aquiares is one of the only farms in the world growing Esperanza on a commercial scale — a rare hybrid varietal with deep African roots and an elegance in the cup that reflects exactly that heritage. Look for notes of blackberry, lime, and brown sugar — deep, dark fruit with a bright lift and a warm sweetness that pulls it all into balance. Rich, refined, and quietly exceptional. This coffee is available by the bag in-store and online, and for wholesale.
