INTRO
Mulu Espresso is Prodigal's new seasonal blend, 100% fresh Ethiopian washed and natural coffees roasted just a touch darker for espresso. A super fun coffee combining everything loved about classic Ethiopian flavours: citrus and florals from the washed component and rich cherry flavour from the natural. Punchy and ripe, it makes great straight espresso and americanos. In the cup: orange, cran-apple, and cherry.
THE PRODUCER
This blend combines a washed and a natural Ethiopian coffee. Prodigal's blends are made exclusively from fresh headline coffees rather than the usual unchanging combinations of the same two or three coffees bought in large quantities for consistency, with components changing bit by bit to keep the flavour fresh and lively while the spirit of the blend stays the same. Well-crafted blends, they say, are better than the sum of their parts.
THE PROCESS
The blend combines washed and natural processing: the washed component contributes citrus and florals, and the natural contributes rich cherry flavour.
Pairing a washed Ethiopian with a natural one is the defining structure. It's what builds the punchy, ripe profile, with orange and cran-apple brightness from the washed lot and cherry depth from the natural.
THE CUP
Punchy and ripe: bright orange and cran-apple lead, with a rich cherry depth through the middle. Roasted for espresso, it makes great straight shots and americanos.
