The Bean Bio

This is the modern evolution of the timeless “espresso backbone” blend that roasters have relied on for decades. Equal or near-equal parts of Brazil, Colombia, and Costa Rica create a cup that is sweet, full-bodied, and impeccably balanced from the first sip to the cooled finish. The Brazilian naturals/pulped naturals supply the heavy, syrupy texture and dominant dark-chocolate/nut-butter core. High-grown Colombian washed lots add bright citrus-caramel lift and nougat-like sweetness in the mid-palate, while the Costa Rican component (typically honey-processed or strict washed from Tarrazú or West Valley) contributes refined stone-fruit acidity, floral aromatics, and a clean, juicy snap that keeps the blend lively without ever becoming sharp. The result is an incredibly versatile coffee: lush and chocolatey as espresso with thick, tiger-striped crema; vibrantly sweet and complex as pour-over or batch brew. It drinks like a hug from an old friend—familiar, comforting, and technically flawless.
