From the roaster

We know how hot summer can get. Especially in Georgia. That's why we wanted to create a summer blend that helps us all get through the summer weather. Our new summer blend "Heat Wave" will do just that for those who need a little bit of extra energy to face the heat. With notes of fruit punch, grape popsicle, and summer vacation, Heat Wave brings out the best flavors of summer. This coffee is especially tasty over ice to keep things chill, but you can also enjoy it hot. Make Heat Wave a part of your summer plans, that way you can enjoy the taste of vacation wherever you are!

The Heat Wave is a blend of our Nicaragua Selva Negra naturally processed coffee and a special "Purple Fruit" Co-fermented Colombian Natural coffee from Sebastian Ramirez who also produced our "Stay Peachy".

Context

The WS Heat Wave, sourced from producer Sebastian Ramirez in Nicaragua, represents a vibrant example of the Natural processing method. When coffee cherries are dried in their entirety, the sugars from the fruit pulp often impart a distinct sweetness and complexity to the final cup. Peach Coffee Roasters has highlighted this profile with tasting notes of fruit punch, grape popsicle, and summer vacation, suggesting a bright and playful experience.

For those exploring the nuances of such profiles, natural-processed coffees often exhibit heavier fruit-forward characteristics compared to their washed counterparts. To better understand how these specific descriptors align with broader sensory categories, you can consult the flavor wheel. This lot from Peach Coffee Roasters serves as an excellent case study for how origin and processing techniques converge to create a unique, evocative cup that captures the essence of its production.
