Coffee Story
Quebrada Grande comes to us from the Calderon family, the same award-winning producer Ricardo, whom we have worked with for over seven years with lots from El Vendaval and Los Girasoles. The Calderon family has worked in the Dota Valley in Tarrazu, Costa Rica, for three generations. His family owns multiple farms and their micro mill Los Angeles, where they process coffee from their farms. This year, Detour has purchased almost 20% of Quebrada Grande farms’ total production, which sits at the extremely high elevation of approximately 1850 to 2000 MASL in some areas.

quite disapointed

I measured and extracted as recommended (it's pretty standard) and after pulling three separate shots that tasted about the same, i realized this coffee if definitely not for me or my wife.

Bordering on sour, not much beyond that. The subtleties of this medium roast are lost due to the tartness that overwhelms everything.

I was so exited, I unfortunately ordered that large bag, but that's on me. Back to punch buggy for me.
