Colombia Don Juan Tabi Carbonic Maceration

This is a limited run, experimental coffee that has notes of dark chocolate with hints of strawberry and blackcurrant and a sweet, creamy body.

Great used for conventional pour over methods of brewing and exceptional for espresso.

The process of carbonic maceration takes the coffee cherries and puts them in airtight barrels where carbon dioxide(CO2) is pumped in to create a CO2-rich environment. The CO2 allows the cherries to break down, often producing bright and winey coffees with strong notes of red fruits. The closed environment does not allow for many of these flavour to escape allowing them to infuse into the outer layer of the green bean.

Roast level: City+ / Dark

This coffee will begin to hit its peak flavour around 3-4 days AFTER the roast date. If using for espresso allow for at least 7 days.

A note about freshness

To increase shelf life and preserve freshness, it is best to buy the beans whole and grind them at home. That said, we understand that not everyone has a coffee grinder at home. Select the type of grind for the way you normally prepare your coffee. Not sure? Check out our handy chart.
