High quality green
Smooth body, silky character
The different fruit-notes harmonize extremely well with each other
Way too dark for my taste
I wouldn´t call it a summer coffee, it is not a refreshing character, it´s more for rainy days or even for modern espresso
The change in the pricing makes a bad feeling in the stomach
Recipe
Method of preparation: V60
Coffee (g): 15
Water (g): 225
Water temperature: 60-88C
Grinder (settings): 83mm SSP Brew (medium coarse)
Process:
I tried different preparation methods because with my go-to method it did not shine at all (too roasty/bitter character with very muted fruity notes). At the end I found that the cold bloom makes the trick with this coffee:
1. pour 45g 60C water for 1:45 minutes
2. pour with 88C water till ~150g
3. pour till ~225-230g
total time approx 3 min
I bought this coffee for 23 EUR (92 EUR/kg). For that price I would give it 3 stars. Now the list price (no discount price!) dropped to 18 EUR, for this new price I give it 4 stars. But still, it is a bad feeling in the stomach that the list price changed almost 25% since I bought it...
It is my third coffee from this farm and the other two were significantly better (they were also more expensive and from other roaster). Not bad at all, very smooth and silky and the fruity notes create a beautiful harmony ...Morein your mouth, but too dark for my taste, the pricing is not really good (at the price I paid) and not what you would expect based on the description. Maybe I will freeze it till winter and prepare it as an espresso.
