Flavour

Despite its smaller stature, Caturra coffee packs a punch of flavour. It is renowned for its bright acidity, medium body, and a flavour profile that often includes notes of fruitiness, citrus, and a pleasing sweetness. Its well-balanced taste and clean finish make it an ideal choice for both single-origin coffee and blending. Caturra's adaptability to varying altitudes and climates contributes to the diversity of flavours it can express.

Terrior

The flavour development of Caturra coffee is influenced by the soil and geography of its growing regions. It often flourishes in volcanic soils rich in minerals, providing the coffee plants with essential nutrients. The diverse landscapes, altitudes, and microclimates in countries where Caturra is grown contribute to the variety of flavours it can exhibit. From the high-altitude plantations of Costa Rica to the rolling hills of Colombia, Caturra's adaptability allows it to convey the unique terroir of each location.
