Arturo Avilés Espresso

Esta variedad Castillo cultivada por Arturo Avilés ofrece un perfil denso, equilibrado y jugoso, con notas a ciruela, cacao, vainilla y final a almendra.

The Arturo Avilés Espresso, sourced from producer Arturo Avilés and roasted by Right Side Coffee, offers a focused expression of the Castillo varietal. While Castillo is often recognized for its resilience and adaptability in the field, its cup profile can vary significantly based on processing and terroir. In this specific roast, the profile highlights a structured balance of ciruela, cacao, vainilla, and almendra.

When evaluating such distinct flavor profiles, it is helpful to reference a flavor wheel to better categorize the interplay between the nutty, almond-like base and the deeper, stone-fruit acidity of the plum notes. Because espresso preparation concentrates these characteristics, the interplay between the cacao and vanilla elements often provides a rounded, lingering finish. This lot serves as a clear example of how careful roasting can highlight the inherent qualities of the Castillo plant, providing a consistent and approachable experience for the espresso enthusiast.
