This is a slightly unusual Brazil from my own stash.
It has a strong flavour than you would expect, and slightly higher acidity. But still with a full, sweet flavour and outstanding body.
This is will be a good bean for some blending – I’m currently using it 50/50 with another Brazil as the base bean in a blend.
Note that this is a peaberry (PB).
A normal coffee cherry contains two beans. Peaberry beans form when the two beans fuse into a single, denser bean shaped like a little football. Peaberry’s are usually much smaller than the average ‘normal’ bean.
In my experience the extra density produces more concentrated flavours, and this is true of this coffee as well.
There will be 30Kg available when the offer is available at 8:00pm on Thursday November 16th
Roasting Notes: Not sure if I have found the sweet spot with this bean yet, but it does seem to take a deeper roast than I would normally use for a Brazil.
So far, the best batch has been to the early to mid stages of second crack.
