The fruit that comprises La Gladiola comes from the Western portion of the Tarrazu valley. The fruit is purchased from specific farmers, process it at La Minita's mill, Benefice del Rio Tarrazu and kept separate from their other trademark coffee beans.

I've been searching for an everyday bean that gave me the taste I like. I've been buying different beans and trying them alone and then blended with other beans. When I found this coffee I found the perfect cup for me. Very earthy and not too fruity.

I've ordered all 3 of the La Minitia beans. La Magnolia is outstanding! Couldn't imagine much better until my 1st mug of La Gladiola. This has a little more earthiness, which I love. I enjoy darker roasts averaging 1.5 to 2 minutes into 2nd crack. Cooler temps (400 F) to extend 1st and 2nd cracks, allowing for build of sugars. 12 G per 10 oz. mug (280G), French press @ 4 min 30 sec. A perfect cup if there is such a thing.

La Gladiola is a solid tasting coffee. No super high notes, but no flaws either. I drink a lot of coffee every day and I would reorder this coffee without question. This is the kind of coffee you can sit around the kitchen table drinking without noticing how good it really is. I roast to start of the second crack and let my Cafe Gene self cool which takes the beans a bit darker (no oil). I have tried both a coarse and a medium rind using an OXO burr grinder, brewed at 200 degrees and find both fine. I have settled on the medium grind. I agree with the earthy, not too fruity review with regard to taste.
