Colombian Organic Coffee

This Columbian coffee has a very good acidity with tones of chocolate, dried fruit, medium body. Aroma: Sweet, clean, fruity, cocoa We recommend a medium roast for this organic coffee but it will stand up to a dark or French roast as well.

Tasting Notes: A very nice cup a bit of the unique side for Colombia. Lighter roasts have very nice and clean acidity, a bit lemony, some floral with hints of a fruit tone but depending on how light can get a little grassy and nutty as the balance. just a little development past first crack is a good sweet spot. Medium roasts are clean with a bit of the acidity muted, sweeter edged and more traditional nutty/chocolaty factor. Darker roasts are a bit thinner than most Colombians but full of bakers chocolate notes. Surprisingly just a hint of smokiness out of the cup, didn’t pick up too many roasty notes.

Roasting Notes: Easy to roast and shines more around the light to medium roasts. Some jazzy acidity for a Colombian. Medium to dark roasts will be better for a daily drinker, smoother with a little more body.
