Los Robles - Costa Rica

‘Another fabulous coffee from our friends at Aguilera. This one is different to their usual offerings, and a rare ‘comfort’ offering. A stunning all-rounder.’

In the cup, you can expect to find really huge blackcurrant notes. We had team members being reminded of ‘dark fruits’ Strongbow cider and Ribena. Zac was even reminded of intense fruit notes, like you might find in a cough sweet.

There’s a good, heavy, chewy, syrupy body here too, which makes for a luxurious mouthfeel and an intense drinking experience.

Add milk, especially in something like a flat white and you might find some lovely, subtle floral notes too.

However you brew this coffee, the brown sugar sweetness rounds everything off nicely and makes for a deliciously moreish coffee.
