Description
Level - Special Espresso
A vibrant, expressive cup with delicate florals, mandarin citrus, and roasted pineapple. On the palate, it strikes a beautiful balance—sweet and juicy, with a clean acidity and subtle complexity. Ideal for filter brewing, its bright, fruity character makes it a standout choice for those who enjoy a fresh, elegant profile.
It begins with careful handpicking—only ripe cherries are selected. After flotation sorting and manual inspection, the cherries are depulped within six hours of arrival. The coffee is then dry-fermented for up to 12 hours and soaked in clean mountain water for 12 to 24 hours. Finally, the harvest is dried on raised beds for 2 to 3 weeks, with frequent turning to ensure even drying and precision quality throughout.
Expect notes of Roasted Pineapple, Mandarin and Floral
What is the roast recency?
We recommend brewing with beans that are at least two weeks off roast. All beans are roasted to peak flavour at around 6-10 weeks. We have the option to either purchase standard beans (at least 2 weeks but no longer than 6 weeks off roast), or rested beans (at least 7 weeks off roast, no longer than 10). For peak flavour, if you are looking to use immediately, we recommend purchasing the rested beans. If you are adding to your rotation of beans, we recommend purchasing the standard and allowing the beans to naturally rest and mature whilst you rotate through other beans.
