{"product_id":"4-costa-rica-alba-1","title":"#7 Costa Rica Al Aguacate","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a wonderful coffee from Costa Rica, delivering flavours of dark molasses, pink grapefruit, raspberry and dark chocolate. We love this one brewed as a pour-over (filter), although as always prepare it as you like!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMarespi is a vertically integrated, third-generation coffee enterprise located in Costa Rica’s Brunca region, where the Acuña family oversees every stage of production—from cultivation on the high-altitude El Aguacate farm (1 890 m.a.s.l.) through wet- and dry-milling to direct export—ensuring full traceability and quality control.. Volcanic soils, consistent mountain rainfall and the cool influence of nearby Cerro Chirripó contribute to the coffee’s refined balance, while Marespi’s sustainability programme reduces chemical inputs, conserves biodiversity and invests in producer training. What started with a few plots of land and a passion for coffee has grown into a respected exporter known for producing high-quality, fully traceable lots. Located in the West Valley, Marespi works closely with long-term farmer partners, many of whom have collaborated with the family for decades. Sustainability and innovation are central to Marespi’s approach. They emphasize reducing chemical inputs, protecting ecosystems, and promoting biodiversity, while refining honey and natural processing methods that both conserve water and elevate cup quality. The lot offered is Catuai and Red Caturra; after selective hand-picking, whole ripe cherries are density-sorted and dried as a natural for roughly twenty-two days on raised beds, with regular turning and moisture monitoring.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-processed=\"true\"\u003eRoast level: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003eLight-Medium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-processed=\"true\"\u003eOrigins: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003eCosta Rica, Alba\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong class=\"Yjhzub\" data-processed=\"true\"\u003eTasting notes: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003ePink grapefruit, raspberry, and dark chocolate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"Yjhzub\"\u003eWhole bean or ground to your requirements.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beam Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"250g \/ Whole bean","offer_id":52867176137046,"sku":null,"price":9.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Coarse (Cafetiere)","offer_id":52867176169814,"sku":null,"price":9.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Medium (Filter\/Pour Over)","offer_id":52867176202582,"sku":null,"price":9.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Fine (Espresso)","offer_id":52867176235350,"sku":null,"price":9.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000g \/ Whole bean","offer_id":52867176268118,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"1000g \/ Coarse (Cafetiere)","offer_id":52867176300886,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000g \/ Medium (Filter\/Pour Over)","offer_id":52867176333654,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1000g \/ Fine (Espresso)","offer_id":52867176366422,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0947\/4991\/7526\/files\/BEAM-36.jpg?v=1773794375","url":"https:\/\/beamcoffee.co.uk\/products\/4-costa-rica-alba-1","provider":"Beam Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
