Coffee farms tend to be small and family-run, and coffee production is a heritage that is often passed down through generations. The farmers often own their own micro mills, giving them the opportunity to work with the entire value chain from growing coffee berries to processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you've had some speciality coffee in the past, you've probably heard of berry-dried coffee. In short, this means that the coffee berries are dried with the skin and pulp on before they are processed, sorted, packaged and eventually roasted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the coffee is wet-processed, this means that the skin and pulp are removed from the beans immediately after harvesting, before they are fermented, rinsed and left to dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you buy coffee from Costa Rica, you will often see that it is honey-processed. This is an intermediate variant between the first two, as the husk is removed but some of the pulp around the bean is retained before drying. This adds sweetness and fruitiness to the flavour. \"Honey\" refers to the sticky layer of sugar that remains around the bean and feels like honey. Because some of the pulp is retained, the method is also referred to as partially berry-dried.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Bonnertork-960x540-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Bonnertork-960x540-1.jpg 960w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Bonnertork-960x540-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Bonnertork-960x540-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Bonnertork-960x540-1-18x10.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The processing method originated in Costa Rica, but although many farmers have specialised in this, berry-dried and wet-processed coffee is also produced in the country, in line with other coffee-producing countries in Central America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Honey-processed coffee is categorised into four different grades: black, red, yellow or white. This indicates the length of time the bean has been dried and how much pulp has been left around it. The darker the colour of the bean, the longer it has been dried and the more pulp it has had around it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By experimenting with these different parameters, Costa Rican coffee farmers are able to bring out unique flavour profiles. At Solberg &amp; Hansen, we are proud to work with some of the country's leading producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Coffee production through generations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bonilla family, led by their father Hector, started the Don Mayo micromill in 2006. Just three years later, they won the Cup of Excellence, the most prestigious competition and award ceremony for speciality coffees, testifying to a huge focus on quality right from the start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are proud to be able to present an exciting micro lot from the farm that in just over 10 years has established itself as one of the very best in Costa Rica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"850\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Hector-850x540-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Hector-850x540-1.jpg 850w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Hector-850x540-1-300x191.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Hector-850x540-1-768x488.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Hector-850x540-1-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>From the El Venado farm and the Delgado family comes the second of this autumn's new products from Costa Rica. The family has been growing coffee for three generations and is known for its high quality. They have control over every stage from cultivation to drying, and the Cerro San Luis micro mill is their own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"815\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Delgado-815x540-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6459\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Delgado-815x540-1.jpg 815w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Delgado-815x540-1-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Delgado-815x540-1-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sh.no\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/Delgado-815x540-1-18x12.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 815px) 100vw, 815px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">60 years of experience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The third and final coffee news from Costa Rica is a new harvest from the small, generation-run farm La Bandera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>60 years after his father planted the first coffee plants on the farm, Diego Hilgado continues to run the farm with a steady hand. Over the years, he has accumulated an enormous amount of knowledge and can safely be called one of Costa Rica's finest producers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Solberg &amp; Hansen recently presented three new types of coffee from Costa Rica.
