PEACH, ALL THE PEACH, CANDY, INTENSE
This is the fourth peach co-ferment we’ve had, I reckon this is the best one, it’s got this intense candy peach finish that properly blows your socks off.
Normally one of our best sellers. The original description we have for our peach coferments still holds below. Incredible, wild, silly stuff. Eagle eyed of you might notice the price on this, the peach lot this time is a touch more expensive than the other co-ferments as the green bean cost is more.
Well, well, another silly fruit maceration lot. We’ve had a bunch of these so far so you might know what to expect. If not, these lots are unlike anything else. The coffee cherry is fermented alongside ripe fruits with extracts of yeasts used in wine making - The result? A coffee that absolutely sings of fruit, in this case peach. There’s no grasping for the flavour on the bag, it hits of peach right away with a toffee and candy finish, unmistakeable. Roasted light/medium, I think something like this works best on filter, but if you enjoy the cup, you could be in for an intense espresso. Make sure to inhale deeply whilst grinding, the smell is amazing.
P.S., This is dearer than my other offerings, you might know I do try hard to keep things accessible, it’s an expensive bean.
