Roaster's Choice Coffee Set - Mexico, Bali, and Ethiopia (whole bean only)
- Our Mexico Veracruz Huatusco Experimental Process comes from the highlands in Huatusco Veracruz. It was processed in a small experimental lot using an inovative technique. First, they pulped the coffee, then they submerge it underwater and add a starter culture to the water cultured from the endemic yeast and bacteria. The coffee stays submerged for 48hours. The culture metabolizes any of the residual fruit and then it and it's by-products go to work on the coffee itself. After 48hours the coffee is drained and washed of residue before mechanical drying. The end result is a marked increase in sweetnes and fruity aroma and a reduction of roasted, and smoky aroma.

- Our Bali Blue Moon coffee is grown by a small group of farmers on the island of Bali in the Indonesian Pacific.
It is quite an atypical Indonesian coffee. It has the fragrance of mandarin oranges and chocolate, and an aroma of milk chocolate, caramel, fresh earth, and roasted hazelnuts. The coffee has a sweet orange juice acidity that is well matched by a rich sumptuous body. The coffee has flavors of chocolate and vanilla along with a nutty sweetness reminiscent of fresh caramel corn. It has a long chocolate milk finish.
