Today I have a tasty coffee from a local roaster. Dutchman Coffee Roasters out of North Kansas City, Missouri. Love getting able to try and promote local businesses. Dutchman strives to provide a high quality coffee that has been resourced in a responsible manor. Prior to selecting a new crop of green coffee, they roast and sample in a variety of brewing methods to ensure an in depth knowledge of the flavor profile of the coffee before purchasing.

This is their Santa Josefa Typica. A washed Peru bean from the Villa Rica, Junin region. The farm has pivoted from a conventional coffee farm to a dedicated specialty farm, planting new varieties and experimenting with multiple forms of processing. I brewed this at my 1:12 ratio. Dutchman notes flavors of sweet caramel, apricot, dried cranberry. This was a nice fruity cup. Little cherry tartness in there. Honey sweetness. Nice balanced cup. Very tasty.

Thanks again to David & Dutchman for the great coffee. Looking forward to trying the other coffees I have from them. Was also nice getting to meet Dutchman at a local beer/coffee/chocolate collaboration at @doubleshiftbrewing, a local brewery.

Alamance Kaffee Werks Black Label Edition Rum Barrel Aged

December 12, 2017

Today I feature a tasty bean from Alamance Kaffee Werks out of Graham, North Carolina. Alamance Kaffee Werks was started from the enjoyment of amazing coffee by Daniel Krenzer & Kevin Jordan. Daniel's love of coffee came after visiting Corlesto Coffee Roasters in Billings, Montana. He's been to Costa Rica and Thailand, two totally different coffee experiences, and became enthralled with what these regions are offering the coffee world and how coffee is embedded in the culture. When not working with coffee, he works as a school psychologist in public education, primarily working on behalf of students with disabilities. And as such, part of his proceeds go towards non-profit organizations that provide mental health supports for children with Autism and brain injuries. Kevin's story started while on a mission trip to El Salvador. It has been through the introduction to roasting he has been blessed to experience once again a truly excellent cup of coffee. The tast...

Today I have a wonderful bean from the folks over at Oak & Bond Coffee Co. After developing a passion for coffee, Oak & Bond Coffee Co. founders, Brian and Lauren McCulloch, continued to explore for their perfect cup. they were in search of a rich, vibrant coffee that they could share with their family and friends. They first found their perfect cup from a small micro lot in the Chapadas de Minas region of Brazil. It was at this point that Brian and Lauren took the leap to open Oak & Bond Coffee Co. To this day their goal remains, share their passion for sourcing the highest quality coffee with you. This is their Chardonnay wine barrel aged Ethiopia coffee.
