Description

This washed lot reflects the impact of years of targeted training and support. The cup is sweet and heavy-bodied, with a lively tamarind tang on the finish.

Sourced from the Sochiapam region of Mexico, this espresso offering from 49th Parallel Coffee Roasters highlights the classic profile often associated with high-quality Mexican coffees. As a washed-process coffee, it undergoes a meticulous processing method that typically emphasizes clarity and a clean finish, allowing the inherent characteristics of the bean to shine through.

The roaster identifies notes of cocoa, dried fruit, and roasted nuts, a combination that creates a balanced and approachable cup. When evaluating these specific descriptors, it can be helpful to reference a flavor wheel to better understand how these nuanced sensations interact on the palate. While washed coffees are generally celebrated for their bright acidity and refined structure, this particular lot leans into a comforting, savory-sweet profile that makes it an excellent candidate for espresso preparation, providing a stable foundation for both straight shots and milk-based beverages.
