This blend of coffees from blue-ribbon estates has been fine tuned over 25 years to craft an elegantly complex, yet graceful cup. First impressions are a thick, full crema, part of a smooth and syrupy body finishing with a climax of complex flavor on the palate. Features base notes of caramel chocolate, hazelnut, citrus, cherrywood and dark plum. A natural, honey sweetness follows at the bottom of the cup. COLOMBIAN – SUPREMO- Finca Flor De Apia - Riseralda Region Sweet and floral with plum, finish of cherry and toffee notes GUATEMALA - FINCA LA HERMOSA Winner, Cup of Excellence Guatemala 2017 Citrusy orange, creamy chocolate and vanilla finish KENYA - LENANA Rich of pineapple, and mango with a red wine acidity and a cocoa background BRAZIL - GOLDEN ALTA MOGIANA Distinct syrupy sweetness and a slight background of toasted almonds SUMATRA - GAYO MOUNTAIN Heavy body with mineral density and a tame, earthy finish ADD TO CART
An inviting front, smooth tongue, with a rind, but zesty finish to seal the deal. Incredibly complex and yet harmonious overall. A broad and deep cup with a rich, nut-milk body and riesling acidity. Base notes of black cherry-chocolate mousse are complemented with honey and almond for a blancmange finish. It’s a new day. The dust has settled and the sunrise is steady. Few are up at this time, but those who are, are after it; they aren’t exactly sure what it is, but it is worth the hustle. These people are hustlers. Hustlers know that the early bird gets the worm because the early bird puts in the work. Hustlers do what others won’t today so tomorrow they can do what others can’t. Hustlers beat talent when talent doesn't hustle. Hustlers aren’t average and their wake up call shouldn’t be either. Ground Zero Half-Light was made for the hustler’s ambition. An inviting front, smooth tongue, with a rind, but zesty finish to seal the deal. #HalfLight #GroundUpCoffee
This coffee has special attributes due to its microclimate and particular, unadulterated terrain. In cupping you first experience a variety of bright floral fragrances. The first sip will strike deep flavors of red apple and caramel. Baker's chocolate, tart cherry and residual tropical fruits then follow in the middle. The cup leaves the palate clean in a dry, sweet riesling-like finish. FINCA LAS BRUMAS The Las Brumas farm was established in 2014 by the Paguaga family. Las Brumas is located in the San Fernando mountains of the Nueva Segovia, Dipilto region. Most of the terrain is rugged and mountainous. The terroir has not been disturbed in its natural state, covered by a lush forest of pine trees and other native trees to the area where monkeys, birds and other native animals live freely. Specifics: • Elevation: 1,250 - 1,350 meters ASL • Varietals: Caturra and Catuai yellow and red • Processes: hand wash, natural, honey; Sun drying on elevated beds • Harvest: January - April • Location: San Fernando, Nicaragua (N13 45,400 W86 20,735) * The wet Process is done by hand in Las Brumas. The coffee cherry is measured and pulped without water then fermented between 15 and 24 hours. After fermentation, the beans are sent to the Santa Lucila Dry Mill located in Ocotal, Nueva Segovia Dipilto. * The dry process In the Santa Lucila Mill consists of drying the beans down to 11 degrees of humidity on African beds. After this, the beans are stored in cellars where they are homogenized. The beans are retrieved only when orders are received and involves hand-selecting only the top export quality for consumption. * The top quality coffee then goes through another layer of quality control through a specialized electronic machine to remove any imperfections. The beans are yet again inspected by hand to further mitigate any imperfections that have remained. * The Paguaga family are their own exporter and the coffee exports are made directly from the Santa Lucila Mill to the final customer they have directly made purchase agreements with.
