marcelo perez is a bourbon and typica lot from huehuetenango, guatemala, roasted by cast iron coffee roasters. it goes through an experimental process, which typically involves non-standard fermentation or drying methods that push the fruit and sugar development further than a washed coffee would. in the cup you get stone fruit up front, with caramel sweetness and a chocolate finish that moves from milk to dark. because the processing adds complexity, a filter method, such as a pour over or aeropress, will give you the clarity to pick out those layers, while a cafetiere will emphasise the fuller, chocolatey body.
