While respecting the traditional processing methods, the younger generation challenges innovative processing methods.
Mario Marin is located in the highland, and it takes about 9 to 10 months for coffee cherries to mature. It produces highly condensed coffee cherries full of sweetness.
Coffee cherries are dried in two stages, first to 15% moisture content on the African bed, then rest in a cool, dark place for two weeks. Then cherries are returned to the African beds to dry until the target moisture content is reached.
A two-step drying process realizes stable and uniform drying, and the traditional Costa Rican Honey process brings out sweetness and texture reminiscent of Tropical Fruit and Apricot.
