Context
Sourced from the Yacuanquer region of Nariño, this Colombia offering from Verve Coffee Roasters highlights the distinct character of high-elevation coffee cultivation in Colombia · Yacuanquer, Nariño. The beans undergo a washed process, a method typically employed to emphasize the inherent acidity and clean profile of the coffee cherry. By removing the fruit flesh before drying, producers often achieve a clarity that allows the bean's foundational sweetness to shine through.
In the cup, this lot presents a balanced profile featuring notes of red apple, milk chocolate, and butterscotch. These descriptors align with the sweet, confectionary categories often found on the flavor wheel, suggesting a comforting and approachable experience. While washed coffees are frequently celebrated for their bright, crisp acidity, the inclusion of milk chocolate and butterscotch notes provides a rounded, dessert-like finish that complements the fruit-forward apple tones.
