The Roast Of Christmas Present
An exclusive Christmas coffee from Colombia
-----
A natural single origin coffee from Colombia, with taste notes of Cherry Liqueur and Dark Fruits. Grown at 1500 – 2150 M.A.S.L in the Palanadas municipality in the Department of Tolima, this Microlot consists of 100% Caturra. This variety originated in Minas Gerais, Brazil and is a natural mutation of Red Bourbon. Caturra is known for higher coffee production and much higher resistance to plant diseases when compared to a bourbon, the plant grows much smaller than most coffee trees meaning farmers can grow more of them much closer together. The coffee cherries are carefully selected by farmers for optimal ripeness; they are then sorted and placed on raised beds and sundried under temperature-controlled conditions until the ideal moisture content is achieved. The result of this careful drying is a sweet, boozy fruit forward coffee with taste notes of Cherry Liqueur and Dark Fruits.

Lewis, Senior Head Barista: This coffee really excels on espresso. Having it black will allow the acidity to pop but having just a dash of milk will really let the sweetness shine through. We have been playing around with it on espresso for the past couple of weeks and have landed on a recipe similar to this: 19g dry dose, 36-38g Yield, 30-32 second extraction time. This will be our guest espresso in stores over the next few weeks so come by and give it a go before you buy!
