Roger Ureña grew up in a family of coffee farmers and has become one of Tarrazú's most innovative producers. At his farm, Finca Cedral, coffee is cultivated at elevations between 1,600 and 2,050 metres. Of the 60 hectares, only 10 are planted with coffee, while the rest remains protected forest.
Passionate about quality and experimentation, Roger cultivates a diverse range of varieties, including Catuai, Rume Sudan, Pacamara and Gesha. He also supports local coffee culture through a café in his village, encouraging the appreciation of specialty coffee within the community where it is grown.



For this microlot, Roger Ureña uses the Yellow Honey process, a method that combines elements of washed and natural processing. After harvesting, the coffee cherries are depulped, leaving some of the sticky fruit mucilage attached to the beans.
The coffee is then dried with this mucilage still intact, allowing the sugars in the fruit to influence the drying process. Compared with White Honey, Yellow Honey typically retains more mucilage, contributing to a rounded body and enhanced sweetness while preserving clarity in the cup.
These are really good beans. I think I'll go back to the African beans I usually order from you guys, but these were an interesting change. Thank you!
Interesting tasting taste, not enough body and difficult to process in the electric grinder
SANTA TERESA
Leckerer Café, ohne säuerlichen Geschmack.
The parcel drove to its destination for too long
It‘s okay but not my type of coffee. Probably won’t buy it again.
