ABOUT THIS COFFEE
The honey process started in Costa Rica and has since spread to other countries in Central America. In this process some or all of the mucilage of the coffee cherry - or coffee honey - that coats the parchment is left on during the drying stage, giving the coffee a sweetness that resembles a natural. This Tarrazú coffee was hand-picked, depulped and moved to patios - African beds - where it was dried for a week until it reached the desired humidity.
GEOGRAPHY
In Costa Rica, the mountainous regions and warm temperatures provide the perfect environment for growing the highest quality Arabica beans. Costa Rica has only two seasons: dry and a rainy season, both of which provide ideal coffee growing climates. Throughout the year the temperature only varies about ten degrees between 63 to 80 °F. Tarrazú is one of the 8 producing region in Costa Rica, located between 1200 - 1750 meters and the average rainfall is between 78 – 118 inches.
All of these factors affect the aroma, body, flavor, and acidity of the coffee we produce. The soil is enriched by volcanic ash, which oxygenates the beans, giving them richer flavors. The variety and beauty of our natural climate make Costa Rica the perfect place to grow coffee.

Testimonials
Newberry is North Torrance's first "third wave" roaster, an area where the only places you can find coffee are at Starbucks, Coffee Bean, and McDonald's. They import beans from around the world, utilize high quality ingredients, roast locally, and establish partnerships with small farms.

Excellent locally roasted coffee. Their choice of single origin plus roast length is always spot on. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I like this place because it's a local roastery and I appreciate what they do amid heavy competition from big coffee companies nearby. I came in to buy a bag of beans to try. They are knowledgeable about coffee, and when I mentioned I wanted the beans to be grinded for my moka pot, they knew exactly what I was talking about and how coarse the grind needed to be. I like how they mention the origin and type of process that is used to roast the beans, which for me is the mark of a true coffee expert.
