Juanachute Micromill – Luis "Tacho" Anastasio Castro
The Micromill is run by coffee producer Luis Anastasio Castro, better known as Tacho, and his family, who visited us in Berlin last year. The entire process, from growing to sealing the coffee bags, is controlled by the family themselves. This Red Honey Catuai lot was grown on Juanachute's so-called Nacientes site and dried for about 25 days on raised beds in full sun.
Variety & Processing
100% Arabica
Catuai
Red Honey
 
In so-called red honey processing, the coffee beans are laid out to dry in the shade, if possible. The beans are completely de-pulped and are only coated with a layer of mucilage, which turns reddish during drying and releases a natural sweetness into the bean.

Don Tacho
A very creamy espresso with an intense sweetness of honey and notes of tangy orange and chocolate. Together, the coffee also reminds us of chocolate biscuits with orange filling. With "Don Tacho", we are sourcing a coffee from the Juanachute Micromill in Costa Rica for the second time.
Visit in Berlin

Tacho and his family visited us for a week in Berlin last year, as his son Luis Anastasio (is named after his father) also competed at the World Barista Championships in Milan as Barista Champion of Costa Rica. We are happy to continue the partnership. The new Tacho was grown and specially roasted on their own farm and we are happy to offer you a coffee from the family for the second time.

Sustainable cultivation and quality awareness
Similar to wine, the origin, cultivation and careful harvesting also form the basis for a speciality coffee. For our coffees, we use only ripe and hand-picked 100% Arabica coffee beans, because the elaborate harvest by hand is an essential quality criterion. Our highland coffees are natural products and are grown in shady forest gardens in a nature-friendly way. This preserves the biodiversity in the growing region. The coffee cherries can ripen slowly at cool altitudes with nourishing and fertile soil conditions. The coffee plants have more time to develop their characteristic and fruity aromas under these optimal climatic conditions near the equator. 
Frisch von Hand geröstet
All Röststätte coffees are gently roasted by hand in Berlin so that the natural flavours can fully develop without creating undesirable acids. For a distinctive body and a versatile taste profile in the cup, we want to emphasise and optimally process the special features of the respective variety, farm and origin of the coffee with our roasting. The aim is to exploit the full potential of the green coffee through our roasting method and also to highlight the valuable work of the producers in the growing countries. These are our quality principles – from source to the final cup.
