Description

This natural processed coffee from Brazil makes a fantastic shot of espresso.  We roast it 15-20 seconds into the 2nd cracks (not as dark as our normal Brazil espresso roast) and end up with a shot of espresso that is chocolatey and creamy with tons of crema.  When made as espresso, it has a rich, thick mouthfeel with caramel, chocolate covered peanuts, and a hint of fruit.   Sweetness, but no bitterness.  You could drink 10 of these if you weren t careful. 

As coffee, we roasted it to the verge of second cracks and it was a very drinkable Brazilian coffee. It had a medium body, brown sugar and nutty undertones, chocolate notes, and low acidity. I don t personally care for Brazil coffee, but blended with some Colombia or Guatemala, it would be pretty nice.

This Brazil is from a single farm (Sitio) in the Minas Gerais region. It is a fully natural processed coffee. They dry it under the sun on long patios. This is one of the first nice Brazils to come in for the season, and it doesn t disappoint.
