Day 10 - Coffee Advent Calendar 2022

A complex and sweet cup

Friends of deTerroir offers you a beautiful coffee from Colombia, produced by 36 small producers, harvested on the steep slopes, from 1,850 to 2,000 masl, of the Galeras volcano which nourishes this soil and promotes the health of the coffee trees.

On the process side, we have here a wash that was fermented between 15-20 hours then dried for 10 to 15 days. In doing so, it offers a sweet, fruity and round profile and offers notes of caramel, vanilla and tropical fruits.

In espresso

Ratio 1 to 2. If you have an 18g portafilter for the double espresso, you will need to reach 36g of liquid ideally in 28 to 32 seconds.
