Looking for an espresso coffee that goes beautifully with milk? Czech roaster Oh My Bean has created MILKY WAY, an espresso blend that will send you into a milky orbit with its complex layers of flavor. The first sip will transport you to creamy tones accompanied by the sweetness of caramel and peach jam.
This blend combines two coffees, Brazil and Ethiopia. The Brazilian component comes from the Fazenda Rodomunho farm, which is known for its precise cultivation of coffee trees and emphasis on quality processing. This farm brings a distinctly creamy body and sweetness reminiscent of milk chocolate to the blend. Thanks to the stable climate and carefully controlled drying processes, coffee from Fazenda Rodomunho offers a balanced flavor profile with subtle notes of nuts and cocoa. The coffee from Ethiopia comes from the Yirgacheffe region, specifically from the Aramo washing station. This location is in a high mountain region in the south of the country and is renowned for its production of delicate, floral and fruity Arabica beans. It is the Ethiopian component that gives the whole blend its fresh fruitiness, pleasant acidity and iconic peach flavor, which is inseparable from Ethiopia.
The coffee owes its full body, which is essential for any espresso, its pleasant sweetness and fruity notes to the natural processing method. After harvesting, the ripe cherries are carefully sorted and then slowly dried on raised African beds or concrete slabs. During drying, the cherries gradually lose moisture and the sugars from the pulp are absorbed into the beans, creating a distinctly sweet and fruity flavor profile.
