Everything you want to know

The particular humidity of the area, combined with the cultivation in the shade, a classic of small African plantations, gives this coffee a great body combined with a sweetness which is not common in Robusta coffees.

For this evaluation the coffee was tasted and extracted in espresso at 91°C (for robusta, lower temperatures are more preferable) with an extraction of 25 ml in 26 seconds. The degassing of the coffee took place in 48 hours. The crema has a dark hazelnut color, without nuances. The aromas we can detect are of wood and dark caramel, in some cases of bitter cocoa.

In the cup, the coffee is extremely full-bodied without acidity. A perfect coffee for espresso or moka.
