Description

Mike is excited to introduce our Obata varietal from the La Bastilla Buena Vista lot. This coffee features a medium juicy body, with flavor notes of lemongrass, and nutty sweet nougat and sweet orange blossom throughout the cup.

The largest part of our crop is fully washed, the traditional processing method for fine milds, and dried at 45 degrees C. The washed parchment is classified with clean water in the "Colombian channel" prior to drying. La Bastilla Estate pride themselves to be one of the few (if not the only) specialty coffee estate companies in Nicaragua with a fully integrated supply chain segment at origin. This means that they plant, produce, harvest, process, classify, and market/export all of their green coffee beans directly from the farm to their final destinations all around the world. Therefore, the La Bastilla Estate guarantees the quality and traceability of their products and their production of special, certified Rainforest Alliance coffee. La Bastilla Estate is currently working on a coffee plantation renovation programme to expand in the next five years.

La Bastilla Estate

La Bastilla has developed an interesting matrix of micro-lot processing during the past 2 years, which have found good acceptance in the specialty coffee community worldwide. We harvest and process separately and from fully mature cherries coffee from 19 different sections of the farm, each from different live zones (i.e. altitude, sun exposure, soil conditions, tree coverage) expressing different cup profiles.

La Bastilla is certified by Rainforest Alliance since 2003. The process of renewing part of their old plantations and replanting hybrid and good cupping varieties was started in 2017, and you will see the results in this year's crop.

Obata Varietal

A cross between Timor Hybrid and Villa Sarchi, the Obata varietal was originally developed in Brazil and in 2014 was introduced into Costa Rica by the local coffee institute, ICAFE. It is known for being a highly productive arabica with a high tolerance to rust.
