From the producer

Coopedota is a long-standing farmer cooperative in Costa Rica that has partnered with Intelligentsia since 2005 to bring high-quality coffee to market.

From the roaster

Intelligentsia sources this lot as part of their long-term Direct Trade relationship with the Coopedota cooperative, focusing on supporting the work of female farmers.

Why this coffee is noteworthy

This coffee is a special selection produced by female members of the Coopedota cooperative, highlighting their specific contributions to the cooperative's output.

The honest process breakdown

WHAT DID THEY ACTUALLY
DO TO THIS COFFEE?

01
Relationship correction

Retained Coopedota as the verified cooperative/producer and kept the farm field empty; the exact sources do not identify an individual farm.

02
Origin and process

Retained the existing Tarrazú region and documented honey process without inferring fermentation, drying, farm, or cultivar details.

03
Commerce and cup

Corrected the empty structured price to the current exact roaster listing of $28; retained the exact catalog’s 340 g package, sold-out status, and black cherry, lime, and dried fig notes.

What was added?

Structured $28 price, refreshed sold-out verification, updated source review, and fact-checked status.

What wasn't added?

No cultivar, individual farm or grower, lot elevation, harvest, fermentation timing, drying protocol, conventional roast level, original tasting score, or public sentiment score was inferred.

Why it matters

The profile now aligns its structured commerce field with the current exact roaster page while preserving the cooperative-versus-farm boundary and separating catalog evidence from tasting evidence.

What you might taste

Black cherry, lime, and dried fig, according to Intelligentsia.

Coffee profile

In the database. Not tasted. Not scored.

This coffee is in our database because we can reliably document it — but we haven't tasted and scored it yet, and we never publish a score we haven't earned.

Outside reviews and internet discussion — is kept clearly separate from our own review. When we taste it, our full review appears here.

The internet pulse

What the internet is saying about this coffee

Research complete — no qualifying reviews yet

Our research pipeline scanned public reviews, videos, forums and discussions for this coffee (last pass 2026-10-31) and found no independent review of this exact release that meets our verification standards. When qualifying sources appear, they'll be published here.

What we found

The exact catalog’s CBI is an evidence-of-quality or coverage indicator rather than a cup score, and its Reddit sentiment is roaster-level rather than exact-coffee sentiment. Older or conflicting menu/seller listings, directories, duplicates, and non-exact releases were excluded. No qualifying independent exact-release review remains.

Until then, meet the people behind it:

Same coffee, different roaster?

Other roasters, same producer.

These coffees come from the same producer or farm, offered by other roasters. We never automatically declare two offerings the exact same coffee — a match requires lot, harvest and traceability details. Even a true same-lot pair can taste different: roast approach, freshness, rest and brewing all reshape the cup.
