About San Juanillo Natural | Costa Rica
Our Costa Rican coffees are sourced directly by us from several dedicated, small producers. We've been buying this stunning natural processed Marsellesa varietal coffee from San Juanillo for 5 years.

Cherry was hand harvested from Marsellesa varietal trees and laid to dry on raised tables under cover. The farm is dedicated to positively impacting the environment with only natural fertilizers, with wildflowers encouraged to be grown between the coffee trees to stimulate the local ecosystem.

This is a juicy, fruity natural with tasting notes that include cherry, prune, honey and a red apple like acidity.

We first bought coffee from San Juanillo farm in 2019 and have visited several times. They grow various varietals using natural farming methods that encourage insect and bird life.

Coffee Origin

Costa Rica 🇨🇷

Costa Rican farmers are known for their tendency to experiment with various post harvest processing method and for planting rare and interesting coffees, such as SL-28 and Geisha. We've been buying our Costa Rican coffees direct from the same producers for several years with the help of Selva coffee.

Processing Method

Natural

The natural process is the most traditional method, where whole cherries are dried intact in the sun. As the fruit dries around the bean, it imparts a heavy body and intense fruit flavours. When well-executed, it produces a sweet and fruity coffee.

Coffee Varietal

Marsellesa

Marsellesa is a relatively recent Sarchimor-derived hybrid developed by CIRAD (the French agricultural research organisation) and released in Nicaragua. It combines good resistance to coffee leaf rust with impressive cup quality, often exhibiting bright acidity, red fruit notes, and a pleasant sweetness. It has gained traction among farmers in Central America as a varietal that doesn't force them to sacrifice flavour for disease resistance.
