brazil coffee · cup of excellence
by el cafe coffee roasters · yongsan district, south korea
this is 브라질 다테하 피베리 내추럴, a natural brazil from el cafe coffee roasters.
specific tasting notes were not provided for this lot, but as a natural-processed brazilian peaberry and cup of excellence winner, expect a full-bodied cup with fruit-forward sweetness and likely chocolate or nutty undertones typical of high-grade natural brazilians.
the coffee comes from brazil and is made up of peaberry beans, which are naturally occurring single-seed cherries. it is processed using the natural method, where whole cherries dry with the bean inside before milling, and it was awarded cup of excellence recognition for its quality.
no specific brew method or roast level was supplied, but natural brazilian peaberries tend to suit espresso or filter methods that highlight body and sweetness, such as a french press or flat-bottom dripper using a medium grind and water around 90 to 93 degrees celsius.
