What is SL28?
The SL28 coffee bean is one of the most celebrated Arabica varieties in the world. It was developed in the 1930s by Scott Agricultural Laboratories (hence the “SL”) and is prized for its exceptional cup characteristics —often described as juicy and complex, with effervescent acidity and a clean, lingering finish. As an heirloom-quality variety, SL28 is cultivated for artistry, yielding a strong sense of terroir and lineage.
