This light and bright baby is an unprecedentedly clean and provocative blend. A few daring folks run this Starburst Fruit Chew of a blend as espresso, but most of us savor its savoir faire in a slightly bigger cup. The first blend ever to win a Good Food Award, and still the best.

Espresso parameters: 30 second shot, 30 liquid grams.

Context

The WHOLESALE - PEEL SESSIONS BLEND represents a curated approach to sourcing, utilizing Heirloom varietals grown at elevations between 1700 and 2100 masl. By blending these high-altitude beans, the roaster aims to highlight a specific profile characterized by notes of honey, rose, and strawberry. In the broader context of specialty coffee, Heirloom varieties are often celebrated for their genetic diversity and complex cup profiles, which can range from bright acidity to deep, floral aromatics. When evaluating such distinct flavor characteristics, enthusiasts often refer to the flavor wheel to better categorize the nuanced interplay between delicate floral tones and sweet, fruit-forward sugars. This blend serves as an example of how careful selection and roasting can emphasize the inherent qualities of high-elevation coffee, providing a balanced experience that bridges the gap between subtle botanical notes and vibrant, jammy sweetness.
