Rich Nuttiness

Rich smoothness with complex finish

Mix and match any 4 bags of coffee and pay for only 3*

The backbone origin of this blend is a lovely Colombian Bourbon which gives the coffee its amazing smoothness and the earthy nuttiness in the initial flavour. The rich intensity of a small quantity of darker roasted Honduran beans kicks in then, filling your mouth with a more complex fruity sensation with a satisfying bite (but no bitterness). This evens out to reveal the rich carbonised coffee notes in the finish. Bourbon Manizales is great black, as an espresso or Americano but the Brazilian Daterra, the third element in the blend really lends itself to milk, opening up the flavour and allowing the milk proteins to bring it all together.

Description

This great coffee is named after the cool little city of Manizales, high in the coffee region of the Andes mountains in Colombia. Coffee farms are small but productive there and coffee cherry processing is taken incredibly seriously. Nearly all of the coffee is washed or wet-processed. Because farm are so small, they pick only the ripest cherries each day and allow them to dry ferment in the sun before the wash. Afterwards the green beans are dried in parabolicos for 2 – 3 weeks, depending on the weather and sunshine levels. This uniquely Colombian approach lets the terroir flavours shine through. The uniform ripeness of the small harvests means great consistency, and this type of fermentation and processing brings out clean, vivid and complex flavours that leave no hiding place for any imperfection in the beans or the taste profile. Great coffee really benefits from this approach, middling coffee gets its mediocrity exposed.
