Today I have another great coffee from the folks over at Rosalind Coffee.

This is their San Isidro. A washed Columbia bean from the Huila region. I brewed this at my 1:12 ratio. Rosalind notes flavors of nectarine, mandarin orange, & marshmallow. I definitely got the tartness acidity of the citrus. Nice bright orange. Also got a creamy chocolate/cola as well. This was a very interesting cup. Think I will try this at my 1:8 ratio next time. See how that turns out.

Thanks again to Walt & Rosalind for the interesting coffees.

Oak & Bond Chardonnay wine barrel aged Ethiopia

February 06, 2019

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. It's a Semi Washed Guji bean with the barrel being sourced from Napa, California. Oak & Bond notes flavors of bright white grape, lemon, watermelon, & cocoa. First of all, love the packaging. No doubts this will be one of my favorites for 2019. Next, the bean was crazy awesome. But ...

Joe Bean Costa Rica Las Torres

December 28, 2017

Today I feature another bean from the good people at Joe Bean Coffee. Joe Bean takes great pride in their quality process. Once a coffee is in-house, it can take several weeks to extract the exact flavor profile they want to showcase. A balanced process combining human touch with technology allows them to then recreate that precise profile each time they roast. Each batch is then cupped prior to leaving their roastery for absolute accuracy and consistency. This is their Costa Rica Las Torres. This is a black honey processed bean from the Brunca region. I brewed this at my 1:12 ratio. Joe Bean notes flavors of apple, hazelnut, brown butter, and chocolate. This was a very bright cup of cold brew. Clean fruity acidity with some nice grape notes. This was a very tasty honey processed bean. Many thanks to Kathy & Joe Bean for the tasty beans. Go check out their goodies here: joebeanroasters.com
