you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is colombia – las brisas collection, a washed colombia from big dog coffee roasters.
it cups with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest alongside jasmine and broader floral notes. the washed process keeps the profile clean and well-defined rather than fruity or syrupy.
it is a gesha varietal grown in huila, colombia, and processed using the washed method, meaning the coffee cherry is fully removed before the beans are dried. this results in a clear, bright cup that highlights the inherent character of the gesha variety.
filter-based methods such as pour over suit this coffee well, as they preserve the delicate citrus and floral notes that define the gesha variety. keeping water temperature consistent and avoiding over-extraction will help maintain the brightness and clarity in the cup.
good independent roasters in south wales are rarer than you'd think, and blackwood's high street isn't somewhere most people put on a coffee map. big dog coffee roasters is changing that quietly. the roasting happens in-house, which means what ends up in your cup has a shorter, more accountable journey than most places can claim. regulars here are vocal about it, and that kind of loyalty in a small town takes real consistency to build. if you're passing through np12, or making the trip deliberately, the high street location is easy to find at number 138. worth timing your visit for a mid-morning filter.
