What's your favourite thing about this coffee?
How it tastes like violet crumble and boysenberry icecream with milk.
What fictional character does this coffee remind you of?
Olivander (Harry Potter) - Because that's what we said when we accidentally created this blend.
What's one interesting fact about where this coffee was grown?
This is a honey processed PNG which is slowly becoming more popular. The honey process from this particular coffee is giving us so much sweetness and brightness in this particular blend. If it was washed, it would be a completely different tasting profile.

What's one interesting fact about where this coffee was grown?
Each harvest, cherries are picked by hand only when fully ripe, with two passes a day during the peak of the harvest. This job is mainly conducted by local women (called “panhadeiras de cafe”), who are extremely disciplined and ensure only the very best cherries are selected. The cherries are then taken by tractors to the wet mill, which is located right on the farm. A dedicated team of ten processed the coffee at the mill with great care. This coffee was processed using the pulped natural process. After pulping, the beans were sun-dried on greenhouse patios with their mucilage still attached—spread in layers of about four centimetres and raked several times a day. Finally, the beans were separated into numbered lots, and later stored and rested in parchment in a purpose-built warehouse. They were then cupped for quality control prior to export.
