Better Buzz Costa Rica Whole Bean Coffee is a 12-ounce, medium-roast, single-origin Arabica roasted in small batches, delivering creamy body and caramel-honeycomb flavor from a honey-processed, woman-owned Costa Rican farm.
This single-origin bag showcases Better Buzz’s small-batch roasting and sustainable sourcing. The beans come from a woman-owned highland farm in Costa Rica, processed using the honey method to preserve natural sweetness and texture. Better Buzz supports ethical practices—this coffee is sourced with Fair Trade and Rainforest Alliance principles and the roaster is CCOF Organic certified—so each cup reflects both craftsmanship and mindful sourcing.
What flavor profile can I expect from this Costa Rica medium roast?
You’ll notice a smooth, creamy mouthfeel with buttery undertones and bright, sweet highlights. The honey processing encourages syrupy textures while roast clarity brings out caramel and honeycomb notes balanced by subtle red-fruit acidity.

How should I brew these whole beans for the best cup?
Whole beans preserve freshness; grind just before brewing to capture the full aroma and flavor. This roast performs well with several methods: pour-over brings clarity to the brighter notes, French press highlights the creamy body, and espresso extracts the caramel sweetness.

What makes this coffee ethically sourced and high quality?
