VOLCAN AZUL H3

The anaerobic process really comes through in the cup—it's got this deep, wine-like sweetness that I haven't found in other Costa Rican filters. At 1550 meters, the acidity is bright but smooth, and it brews cleanly without any bitterness.

Brewed a V60 with this H3 varietal from Volcan Azul and the cup was absurdly sweet and clean for a filter roast. That 1550-meter altitude really shows in the complexity, and the anaerobic fermentation adds a tropical twist without going wild. Easily one of the most memorable bags I've had from Costa

The anaerobic process gives this coffee a surprisingly clean, almost wine-like sweetness that I didn’t expect from a filter roast. I’ve brewed it both as a pour-over and in my drip machine, and it holds its character either way—definitely one of the more interesting bags I’ve had this year.
