Hermanos Aguilera Yellow Honey San Roque

This yellow honey San Roque comes from Finca Chayote, one of several farms run by the Aguilera brothers in Costa Rica’s West Valley. With decades of experience and a strong focus on variety and processing, the twelve Aguilera siblings have become one of the most respected producing families in the country – consistently delivering expressive, high-quality lots.

San Roque – also known as San Roque Kenia or Kenia – is a natural mutation of SL-28 that first appeared in Costa Rica. Like its Kenyan parent, it’s known for bright fruit acidity and a complex profile often likened to cola. In this lot, processed as a yellow honey, that acidity is matched by depth and sweetness. Expect notes of sugar cane, molasses, and brown sugar, balanced by dark chocolate, sweet spice, and florals like jasmine and honeysuckle. Juicy, rounded, and long on the finish.
