INTRO

A playful and carefully constructed filter blend from Czech roaster The Naughty Dog — two coffees from two continents, united by a shared commitment to clarity and sweetness. Sidra from El Diviso in Huila brings intense tropical fruit and rich body via anaerobic natural processing; washed Heirloom from Taferi Kela in Sidamo brings freshness, floral nuance, and clean acidity. Together they create something neither could achieve alone. In the cup: green apple and bubblegum sweetness, black tea refinement, and a velvety milk chocolate finish.

THE COMPONENTS

The blend draws on two distinct origins and two contrasting processing philosophies. From El Diviso farm in Huila, Colombia, a dry anaerobic natural Sidra — fermented in sealed, oxygen-free conditions to develop pronounced fruity sweetness and full-bodied depth. From Taferi Kela in Sidamo, Ethiopia, a traditionally washed Heirloom lot — processed to emphasise clarity, freshness, and the natural floral nuances for which Ethiopian coffee is celebrated.

The deliberate contrast between the two methods is the defining idea behind the blend: the anaerobic Colombian Sidra grounds the cup with sweetness and body, while the washed Ethiopian Heirloom lifts it with brightness and delicacy.

THE PROCESS

🇨🇴 Colombia — El Diviso, Huila (Dry Anaerobic Natural) 🍒 Hand-picking — Sidra cherries harvested at peak ripeness 🔒 Anaerobic fermentation — Whole cherries fermented in sealed, oxygen-free tanks ☀️ Drying — Dried whole-fruit after fermentation to develop intense sweetness and body

🇪🇹 Ethiopia — Taferi Kela, Sidamo (Washed) 🍒 Hand-picking — Heirloom cherries selectively harvested 🔧 Pulping — Outer skin removed before fermentation 💧 Washed fermentation — Fermented in water and thoroughly washed to emphasise clarity and freshness ☀️ Drying — Dried to optimal moisture content on raised beds

THE CUP

A blend that earns its name — unexpected, layered, and genuinely transporting. Crisp green apple and playful bubblegum sweetness open the cup, giving way to the quiet refinement of black tea before settling into a long, velvety milk chocolate finish. A filter coffee that rewards curiosity.
