Single Origin Coffee - Where Do I Start?
Customers love their single-origin beans and constantly try new origins while ordering regular favourites.
We also have many customers who loyally stick to their blends and may be a little nervous about going down the single-origin route. If you have often wondered about single-origin and would like to try it but are unsure where to start, read on!
Our blends are made up of specific single-origin beans carefully sourced to create a unique blend profile and provide a consistent blend year in and year out. Each of these single-origin beans adds something, and when combined, they produce the blends you know and love.
Brazil Cerrado
If you love our Shade Grown Rainforest Blend, try one of the singles that make up this blend. The Brazil Cerrado bean would be a great starting point. This coffee adds a smooth nuttiness to the blend and is described as:
Roasted almond, hazelnut, and caramel notes throughout. A smooth body and orange acidity carry through to a toffee and sticky caramel finish.
This is a standout Brazilian bean. It will give you an insight into the fantastic coffees that make Brazil the number one coffee-producing country globally, and its classic flavour will not disappoint.
PNG Eastern Highlands
If you love our Strong Espresso Blend, you should definitely try PNG Eastern Highlands Organic which gives this blend its rich Caramel/chocolate characteristic and is described as:
Smooth, clean texture with orange & apricot notes and a rich caramel, toffee and chocolate finish.
An exceptional bean that will allow you to experience the rich delights of what's unique climate and incredible fertile soils can produce.
Ethiopian Cherbenta
If you want to go it on a limb and enjoy our Rich Organic Fair-Trade Blend, you could opt for the Fair Trade Organic Ethiopian Cherbenta, which, although a small part of the blend, imparts subtle fruits, smooth mouthfeel and red wine notes to the blend. On its own, it is a delight and is described as:
Notes of orange peel, boozy red wine, rich caramel, and toffee up front. A coating body and citric acidity carry through to a long finish of plum, florals, and stone fruit.
This naturally processed bean from the Yirgacheffe region of Ethiopia will give you a peek into the fantastic world of Ethiopian coffee. A world that many customers find enthralling, and which can lead to a lifelong journey of new discoveries as each region and processing method unveils new and exquisite single origins.
