AGUA DE SAPO //

A traditional Costa Rican beverage whose name translates to “toad water,” referencing the opaque appearance developed from dissolved panela and ginger extraction. Originating along the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica, the beverage is traditionally consumed as a cooling response to tropical climates.

BEVERAGE STUDY NØTES: Agua de Sapo reinterprered through inoculation with BRUTØ Ginger Bug culture: wild fermentation propagated from ginger-derived yeasts. Culture initiates secondary fermentation, metabolizing residual sugars = natural carbonation + organic acids. End result: a broader aromatic spectrum while introducing layered acidity, microbial complexity, and textural effervescence without forced carbonation.

BARRAMUNDI + TUBERS

Arizona Barramundi / Rondon Sauce / Tubers

Barramundi as protein baseline, set against yuca rondon (fat + allium + coconut), with tubers staged across forms (fried, softened, structured). System built on starch, heat, and saturation.

Sourdough tamarind kvass from grain - fermentation as acid + lift

RONDON STUDY NØTES: Originating from Afro-Caribbean communities along Caribbean coasts of Costa Rica as resource-driven stew. Name derives from “run down,” referencing practice of cooking ingredients down together into unified broth. Historically, the dish functioned as an expression of full utilization - adapting to available catch, tropical agriculture, + preservation methods.

BEEF + YUCA

30-Day Dry-Aged New York Strip / Charcoal Yuca / LIZANØ

LIZANØ STUDY NØTES: ongoing study of the foundational Costa Rican sauce - reverse engineered through the lens of in-house production. Root vegetable trim (turnip, carrot, daikon + other aromatics) undergoes a 3% salt lacto-fermentation over five days.

Resulting liquid is layered with spices + dehydrated vegetable solids are reincorporated to deepen structure and flavor concentration. Finished with vinegar for calibrated acidity + lightly thickened with cornstarch to achieve viscosity.

Yuca sourced within local Colorado network - connecting Costa Rican growers to our kitchen through a tighter, more intentional supply chain.
