This newUNICORN FILTER blend from The Naughty Dog features a sweet, distinctly playful profile with higher acidity and a clearly defined fruitiness. In the cup, the flavor of Maoam Cherry candies meets a subtle vanilla note and the sweetness of milk chocolate. The result is a coffee that feels juicy and sweet, yet lively enough to avoid feeling heavy. The fruity notes are reminiscent of cherry candies, the vanilla ice cream adds a softer and creamier impression, and the milk chocolate pleasantly rounds out the entire profile. The blend is composed of two coffees that together create a distinctive yet balanced cup.
The first part is a Colombian coffee from the El Diviso farm, which brings sweetness, more intense fruitiness, and a fuller character to the blend. The second part is Ethiopian coffee, which adds clarity, lightness, and a fresher acidity. It is precisely the combination of these two origins that gives the coffee its juicy, candy-like character, while also keeping it balanced so it doesn’t taste overly fermented or heavy.
The processing combines the natural and washed methods. The Colombian portion consists of natural Ombligon, which gives the entire blend incredible sweetness, fruitiness, and a syrupy body. The Ethiopian portion, on the other hand, is washed, which helps maintain the clarity, brightness, and fresh structure of the entire blend. This combination creates a filter coffee that is sweet, juicy, and playful, yet still easy to read. The coffee thus has a profile that feels fresh and innovative, yet naturally drinkable.
