Altitude: 1450 - 1550 m n.p.m.
About the coffee from the producer:
Another KAIZEN barrel-aged coffee is the result of a local collaboration with Kojder Winery, located just 30 km from Szczecin.
We placed green coffee beans from Costa Rica – Marvin Barrantes in a French oak barrel that first held Cabernet Cortis wine, and was later used to age Johanniter brandy for two years.
As a result, we obtained a coffee that has absorbed rich, boozy notes — the profile reveals rum, strawberry, and fig.
About the farm
The mill began operating in 2012 with a small depulping machine and a few African drying beds, where all the coffee was 100% sun-dried. The first single varieties Marvin experimented with were Caturra and Millennium.
The mill, named “Reina Elizabeth,” pays tribute to the farm’s previous owner, Elisa Alfaro Hidalgo (1928–2016), who was Marvin’s mother. Doña Elisa had strikingly blue eyes, which led locals in San Luis to claim that only a queen could have such eyes—hence the nickname “Reina Elizabeth.” In addition to her remarkable eyes, her kindness and the farm’s specialty coffee were also truly royal.
