FAMILIAR FLAVIOURS.
CAREFULLY CURATED
The women of the Asproagro Community are pioneering examples of female led, quality driven coffee production. A key producer partner, they provide coffee for many of our blends but each year we give them some well-deserved time in our Producer Series spotlight.
A classic washed process allows the subtle flavours and balanced acidity of this varietal to speak for itself. Our direct investment to an irrigation project in 2021 aids production in an area that has recently experienced water shortages and irregular rainfall.
Please note we only hold limited stock of these products, but we aim to roast at least two times a week (T&Cs apply)
How to brew
We normally lean toward filter brewing for the producer series as the method highlights the more complex and delicate flavours in lighter roasted coffee. As always, we default to the industry standard of 60g of coffee per litre of water as a starting point.
For espresso try a 1:2.5 brew ratio and shot times of around 24-30 seconds.
Tasting notes
An apple eaten everyday may lose its lustre, russet skin rubbed matte by repetition. But each new season we are struck anew - bright, crisp and sweet and balanced, perfection in simplicity.
