Current Release:

Costa Rica Tidal Summit

Medium / Light Roast · Limited Release

Grown high in the mountains of the Perez Zeledón region and carried by Pacific winds, Tidal Summit captures the bright clarity only high-elevation Costa Rica coffees can deliver. Strictly Hard Bean (SHB) grade and carefully washed before sun drying, this lot expresses the region’s volcanic soils with precision and lift.

The cup opens with bright, citrus-tinged acidity — lively but controlled — followed by a smooth medium body that settles like warm sand underfoot. Brown sugar sweetness anchors the profile, while notes of brown spice and ripe stone fruit add depth and quiet intrigue. Think nectarine, a hint of clove, and raw sugar dissolving slowly on the tongue.

Catuai and Caturra varieties bring structure and balance, allowing the clean washed process to shine. The finish is crisp, sweet, and lingering — like salt air at dusk.

This is beach coffee for thinkers. Sunshine with altitude.

Roasted once.

Offered briefly.

Why Droste Coffee

We release one coffee at a time.
No catalog. No endless options.

Each release captures a specific moment—
a place, a feeling, a time of day—
then moves on.

When a release sells out, it becomes part of the archive.
We don’t repeat it. We continue forward.

A Place in the Cup

Coffee is more than a beverage.
It’s a pause. A beginning. A familiar ritual.

We believe every cup can feel like a place you arrive at — briefly, deliberately, and with attention.

Droste Coffee exists to honor that moment.

How Our Releases Work

• One coffee available at a time
• Small-batch, limited quantities
