This months subscription coffee comes from the world-famous Cafe Granja La Esperanza. On the farm there is a whole range of phenomenal coffees, ranging from Gesha, to Sudan Rume, CGLE17 to Mandela, plus many more.
This particular lot is grown at Las Margaritas, one of the CGLE farms, and was chosen for the subscription as it represents the Sudan Rume varietal, standing out due to its complexity and unique flavour profile. It is layered, it's intense and distinctive. It is has undergone a traditional natural process, where it is left in a silo for 48 hours, before being solar dried for 28 days. The final stage is a 3 month rest for stabilisation.
In the cup you'll find flavours of blueberry, stem ginger and light brown sugar. It also has a herbal element, like lemongrass, as well as florality in the aroma.
