There are coffees you savor, and then there are those that disappear before you even have a chance to ask for another cup. POPPY SODa from DAK Coffee Roasters falls squarely into the latter category. This limited edition was created in collaboration with Standart Magazine, and it’s already clear that it won’t be repeated. In the cup, you’ll find a playful, almost nostalgic profile reminiscent of sweet cereal and lemonade, with notes of peach, jasmine tea, and citrusy freshness. The aroma is intensely floral, the flavor bright and juicy, with a silky texture and the sweetness of candied fruit that will make you slow down and truly savor the moment. If you hesitate, you risk missing out on this experience.
Behind this exceptional coffee is producer Sebastián Ramírez, who grows it in Colombia’s Quindío region atan altitude of around 1,800 meters. It is here, in an environment ideal for the slow ripening of coffee cherries, that the foundation for a complex and distinctive flavor profile is laid. Sebastián is known for his innovative approach and ability to push the boundaries of traditional production. The Pink Bourbon variety, which is prized in its own right for its sweetness and elegance, takes on a new dimension here thanks to his precise work and attention to detail. Each lot is the result of careful selection and a commitment to creating something truly unforgettable.
The entire character of this coffee is based on a multi-stage washed process, which combines several phases of fermentation and washing. The coffee cherries undergo repeated controlled processes that allow the complexity of flavors to develop without losing their purity. This process highlights citrus notes, floral aromas, and the sweetness of stone fruits, while keeping the cup bright and clear. The result is a coffee that feels light, elegant, yet incredibly expressive, revealing new layers with every sip and leaving a long, juicy, and unforgettable impression.
