Santa Lucia White Honey Coffee: Sweet, Juicy, and Unique

Discover the exceptional flavours of Santa Lucia White Honey coffee, where traditional Costa Rican craftsmanship meets innovation. Produced at Finca Santa Lucia by Ricardo Perez Barrantes, this coffee reflects over 30 years of dedication to quality and sustainability. Nestled in the Naranjo region at an elevation of 1,750 metres, Santa Lucia produces coffee that’s both sweet and vibrant, with tasting notes of apricot, plum, and honey.

Helsar de Zarcero: A Community of Excellence

In 2007, Ricardo partnered with neighbouring farmers to establish Helsar de Zarcero, one of the first small-scale mills in Costa Rica’s West Valley. Helsar is more than a mill; it’s a community hub where over 30 farmers process their cherries for optimal quality. Innovations at Helsar include:

Cascara Production Plant: Drying and pasteurizing coffee cherry husks for tea, nutritional supplements, and dyes.
Experimental Varieties: A nursery and new farm expansion focused on unique microlots.

This collaborative approach ensures a sustainable future for the region’s coffee producers.

The White Honey Process: Elevating Flavour

The white honey process is a delicate method that highlights the natural characteristics of Santa Lucia’s Typica, Villalobos, and Caturra varietals:

Minimal Mucilage Removal: Retains a light layer of fruit on the beans for added sweetness.
Tiered Raised Bed Drying: Ensures even drying and enhances flavour clarity.
Sweet and Juicy Profile: The result is a coffee with bright fruit notes and a smooth, honeyed finish.

Why Choose Santa Lucia White Honey Coffee?

Distinct Flavour: Notes of apricot, plum, and honey create a balanced and memorable cup.
Innovative Craftsmanship: Produced using sustainable practices and experimental techniques.
Community Impact: Supporting Helsar de Zarcero uplifts local farmers and promotes regional excellence.
