A very interesting Cerrado. The aroma is so familiar that one knows immediately that “it’s from Brazil,” with the predictable cocoa and nut combination. This carries through to the cup, opening up with loads of cocoa leaning toward dark chocolate, with more tree nut (walnut/hazelnut) than peanut. The mouthfeel is full, balanced and with great body and leaves the palate clean and looking forward to the next sip. Where this diverges from the typical Cerrado is absence of the high citrus-lemony tones and the accompanying acidity, which makes this a good candidate for espresso as well as drip. Whole Bean. 250g/8.80z

Kevin & Louise, the owners are so accomodating and they roast up some of the best KenyaAA, Kona, Guatemalan (DH’s fave) and the aforementioned Brazilian.

I LOVE PEREGRINE!!!

We send fresh-roasted samples for them to try, then, on approval, import anything from five pounds to an entire year’s worth of green beans to be stored at our shop for the client’s use, roasted to order, hand-labeled, and delivered on demand.

We specialize in roasting our beans to just the point where the true flavors that the farmer intended come through, before the flavor of the roasting process itself overpowers the subtleties of the bean.  It is a process that combines art and science to balance the profile of the bean with the profile of the roast to maximize the terrior.
