Boton de Oro – Washed

Botón de Oro is a 5-hectare farm in Costa Rica, owned by Darius ( our co-owner) and his mother since 2022. This Milenio F1 Honey lot is the first harvest we’ve received from trees planted on a single hectare in the same year alongside Thitonia diversifolia (Botón de oro). A flowering plant that provides shade, improves soil fertility, and helps control leaf-cutter ants and other pests.

The ripest cherries are hand-picked, sorted, and soaked in water to remove any floating debris. They are then crushed and dried on raised beds in the shade for 7 to 10 days until the moisture level reaches 10-11%.
