Context

The Espresso Vivo Blend, crafted by Per'La Specialty Roasters, represents a thoughtful composition of beans sourced from Indonesia and regions across Central and South America. This blend features the Bourbon varietal, a plant historically celebrated for its balanced cup profile and moderate yields. By utilizing the fully washed processing method, the roaster emphasizes a clean, refined clarity in the final cup, allowing the inherent characteristics of the beans to shine through without the heavy influence of fruit fermentation often found in natural-processed coffees.

Grown at elevations between 1500 and 2200 masl, this coffee is roasted to highlight a profile of dark chocolate, caramel, roasted almonds, and citrus. These descriptors align with the foundational categories found on the flavor wheel, offering a well-balanced experience that bridges the gap between traditional nutty sweetness and bright, acidic complexity. It serves as a versatile option for those seeking a structured, reliable espresso.
