About MICEPA

Located at 1,495 meters above sea level in the Chirripó region, MICEPA (Microbeneficio Cerro Paraguas) is a shared mill representing the work of approximately fifteen farms. Though coffee production in this region is relatively new, it has quickly earned a reputation for exceptional quality and flavour. This lot, composed of Catuai and Caturra varieties, is processed as a white honey and dried on tiered raised beds to preserve clarity and sweetness.

Precision from Start to Finish

MICEPA is led by Rigoberto and José, who bring meticulous attention to every stage of processing. Each cherry is carefully selected, with the white honey process retaining a touch of mucilage for added sweetness. Their control of fermentation and drying practices allows the full character of the coffee to shine through.

This lot stands out for its dark chocolate, marshmallow and spice flavour profile. The acidity is mellow and soft, but the sweetness is elevated, making it an ideal choice for an everyday cup that never gets old.
