NOTES ON GREEN COFFEE

This coffee is raw with an average sieve 18 and the evaluation of defects ranges from very low to zero. If toasted as an espresso (agtron 50-55, Italian), it forms a light hazelnut cream with light reddish nuances. On the nose the sensations are decidedly fine: mango, sometimes yellow peach and candied apricot. Although light-bodied, this coffee has more roundness than one might imagine. The acidity is in fact balanced by a nice sweetness.

If toasted by filter and brewing (agtron 65-70, full city) the floral and fruity aromas are enhanced, the acidity is enhanced and the sweetness becomes really soft.
