Santa Rosa is a certified organic, Fairtrade coffee from Honduras: a full aroma and a mild, slightly sweet cup that keeps its balance from start to finish. SUN slow-roasts it to a medium roast in its own roastery, which is why it is pointed at a filter machine or a cafetière rather than at a short, concentrated espresso. Whole beans in a 1 kg bag.

An organic, Fairtrade coffee from Honduras

Santa Rosa comes from Honduras, is certified organic and is bought on Fairtrade terms. The aroma is full and the cup is mild and slightly sweet, but the thing you notice is the balance: nothing sharp, nothing heavy, nothing that needs sugar to make it drinkable.

Picked, washed, sun-dried

The cherries are picked in three to five rounds rather than stripped off the branch in one pass, so each bean goes in ripe. They are washed in clear water and then dried in the sun. SUN roasts them in its own roastery using a slow roast, bringing the heat up gradually so the sweetness stays in the bean instead of burning off.

Filter and cafetière

This is a medium roast, 7 out of 13 on our scale: enough body to fill a mug, not so dark that the sweetness disappears. It is aimed at a quick filter or a cafetière, where a mild coffee has the room to show what it has.

FAQ
Customer Questions
Do I get whole beans or ground coffee with the SUN Santa Rosa Medium Roast?

You receive whole coffee beans in a 1 kilo pack. There is no ground version of this item.

If you grind the beans yourself, match the grind to your machine: filter grind for a pour-over filter, a bit coarser for a cafetière and fine for an espresso machine.

Which coffee maker is the SUN Santa Rosa Medium Roast suitable for?

This coffee has a medium roast and according to the description is mainly suitable for filter coffee or a cafetière. Our product details also list the coffee as suitable for espresso and cappuccino.

Because these are whole beans, you can also use them in a bean to cup machine. A medium roasted bean releases less oil than a dark roast, which is good for the grinder.

Is the SUN Santa Rosa coffee organic and Fairtrade certified?

Yes. In our product data this coffee is listed with the Organic and Fairtrade labels, and the product is officially certified organic.

The labels are also shown on the packaging. They apply to both the cultivation and the trade chain.

Where do the SUN Santa Rosa beans come from?

The beans come from Honduras and they are arabica. The coffee has a full aroma and a slightly sweet, mild taste that provides a good balance in your cup.

The beans are picked in 3 to 5 rounds, washed with clear water and 100 percent sun-dried. SUN then roasts them using the slow roast process in its own roastery.

How do I best store the SUN Santa Rosa coffee beans?

Store the beans cool, dark and well sealed, and not in the fridge. Unopened, coffee keeps for about a year, but it tastes best within three months.

Only ever grind what you need, because ground coffee loses aroma faster than whole beans. For filter coffee, allow about 5 to 8 grams per cup.
