ABOUT THIS COFFEE

This special-edition lot from The Naughty Dog comes from the Chapatá farm in Anserma, Caldas, Colombia. Grown at 1,790–2,200 masl in nutrient-rich volcanic soil, this coffee showcases the sweetness and complexity the region is known for. The varieties—Castillo, Caturra, and Colombia—are selectively hand-picked at peak ripeness to ensure exceptional quality.

Processed using the honey method, the cherries are depulped and dried with part of the mucilage still attached. This technique enhances natural sweetness, adds syrupy body, and intensifies caramelised fruit notes. The result is a festive, dessert-like cup with a velvety texture and long, sweet finish. Thanks to its omni-roast, it performs beautifully as both filter and espresso.

HOW IT TASTES

A warming, holiday-themed cup with flavours of caramel fondant, gingerbread, chocolate pralines, and sweet spices. A gentle red-wine fruitiness adds depth, while the honey process brings smoothness and a rich, syrupy structure. Expect bright yet balanced acidity, a full body, and a lingering sweet, spicy aftertaste that stays on the palate long after the final sip.

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 6-12 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 12 - should we have any left in stock!). 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.
