El Salvador Finca Las Brumas
RM 45.00 – RM 135.00
Almonds, Sparkling Citrus, Cane Sugar, Chocolate
Roaster’s Notes:
One of our most underrated favourite. Nothing wild here just sweet, balanced and clean coffee that’s so perfect to sip on rainy days. This El Salvador brings a sparkling bright acidity in a filter roast that makes sipping from hot till cool a pleasure. In our espresso roast, the extended maillard phase tones down the acidity and takes sweetness up another notch.
From the family of Ernesto Menendez that produced the very same SL28 variety for Dale Harris to win the WBC2017, this is a very solid, high quality coffee that you should definitely try

Kenya Kiamwangi AA
Pink Grapefruit, Cranberry Tea, Lemon Peel
The Kiamwangi Factory operates under the umbrella of Iria-Ini Farmer's Cooperative Society ("FCS") in Nyeri, a society that has been in operation since the mid-1950's. The wet mill sits at just under 1800 meters above sea level on the slopes of Mount Kenya. "Factories" are essentially small washing stations aligned with a particular "society" in Kenya, what we would call a "cooperative". In this case, the cooperative society is serving more than 700 farmers in the region. We return to the societies who seem to regularly produce some of the best Kenya coffees, and each year we come across societies that are new to us as well. This is an AA outturn, which means the beans are screened to separate out the largest coffee that measure 17-19 1/64ths of an inch. It's not always a sign of superior cup quality, but are generally given extra care in the dry milling phase and commands a much higher price.

Happy Blend
A mélange of whatever beans we have left behind that was not bought within 2 weeks past roast. These are perfectly roasted beans but were just sadly not taken by anyone before time was up.
Now it has a second chance to make you happy with a heavily discounted price just so we don’t waste what’s been done by farmers.
Perfect for seasoning grinders, researching brewing parameters or practicing latte art. Please take note that flavors and taste will differ from batch to batch and may not necessary be optimum.
It makes us happy to not see good coffees go to waste :)
