Product Description
Another natural processed coffee for Mostra, what is the world coming to!? What used to be rare for our sourcing team, naturals are slowly becoming a more steady part of our offerings.
Our Coffee Buying team can be very very picky about how “clean” a natural needs to be. Sometimes when the coffee seed (or bean, if that’s your preferred nomenclature) is dried inside the coffee cherry as it is in natural processed coffee, over-fermentation and other funky flavors can come up. Occasionally this is subtle and pleasant, other times not so much.
This coffee is a little outside the "usual" box of dry processed coffees for us but our number 1 rule is "does it taste good?" and this coffee definitely tastes great - you wouldn’t be seeing it otherwise!!
Sergio Roldan produces one of the first Chirosos we have sampled produced as a natural. Coming from Urrao, Antioquia and comprised of Caturra, Chiroso and Colombia varietals, the coffee deviates a lot from the naturals we are seeing out of Colombia as this one has a more rounded and balanced taste. Don't believe us? We sent it to Coffee Review we thought it was so special.
93 points from coffeereview.com! Here is their take:
Blind assessment: Sweetly tart, chocolaty. Pomegranate, baking chocolate, orange zest, almond, oak in aroma and cup. Tart-leaning structure with brisk acidity; plush, chewy mouthfeel. Crisply chocolaty finish with undertones of pomegranate and almond.
The bottom line: A crisp, fruit-centered natural Colombia with nice chocolate notes throughout the cup.
