Context
Sourced from the Arbegona region, Bochesa represents the collective efforts of 823 smallholder farmers. This lot is prepared using the washed method, a technique often favored for highlighting the inherent clarity and acidity of the bean. Generally, washed coffees are celebrated for their clean profiles, allowing the specific terroir of the growing region to shine through without the influence of fruit-forward fermentation typical of other techniques. You can learn more about how these different processing methods impact the final cup in our guide.
Roasted by Obadiah Coffee, this selection features tasting notes of dried fruits and marzipan. These descriptors fall within the broader categories of stone fruit and nut-like sweetness often found on the flavor wheel. By focusing on these nuanced characteristics, this coffee offers a balanced experience that bridges the gap between bright, fruit-toned acidity and a comforting, confectionary finish.
