Costa Rica
Awaken the Season.
March arrives with longer light, softer mornings, and the quiet promise of renewal. As winter begins to loosen its hold, our cup shifts with the season — brighter, cleaner, and clearer.
This month, we’re featuring Costa Rica, a beautifully balanced coffee known for its vibrant acidity, smooth body, and crisp finish. Grown in high-altitude regions with rich volcanic soil, Costa Rican coffee is celebrated for its structure and brightness — a profile that feels perfectly aligned with early spring.
It’s lively without being sharp. Smooth without being heavy. The kind of coffee that feels like opening the windows after a long winter.
Awaken the season.
☕ Flavor Profile
• Body: Smooth and balanced
• Acidity: Bright and lively

Costa Rica shines across multiple brewing styles, making it one of the most versatile single-origin coffees to enjoy as the weather begins to shift.
🌿 Best Ways to Enjoy Costa Rica
1️⃣ Classic Pour-Over (Hot & Pure)
Costa Rica truly comes alive with a pour-over method. The slower extraction highlights its clarity and clean finish.
Brew Tip:
1:16 coffee-to-water ratio
Water temperature: 195–205°F
Expect a cup that feels crisp, structured, and gently uplifting — ideal for cool March mornings.
2️⃣ Honey Cinnamon Latte
Warm and softly indulgent, this recipe rounds out Costa Rica’s brightness while preserving its clean structure.
Ingredients:
• 1 cup freshly brewed Costa Rica
• ½ cup steamed milk (or oat milk)
• 1 tsp raw honey
• Dash of cinnamon
Stir honey into hot coffee, add steamed milk, and finish with cinnamon.
The honey smooths the acidity, while cinnamon adds warmth — a balanced, comforting blend.
3️⃣ The Quarry Irish Coffee ☘️
A refined nod to St. Patrick’s Day.
Costa Rica’s brightness prevents this classic from becoming overly heavy, making it the perfect base.
