ethiopia + brazil coffee
by fernwood coffee company · victoria, canada
you'll taste milk chocolate before dark chocolate. this is 1936 espresso, a natural ethiopia + brazil from fernwood coffee company.
expect milk chocolate and dark chocolate, with the natural process giving the cup a fuller, slightly fruit-influenced sweetness underneath. the medium roast keeps the chocolate notes clean rather than roasty.
the blend draws on ethiopian bourbon from the guji region and brazilian bourbon, both processed naturally, meaning the coffee cherries dried whole before milling, which tends to produce a sweeter, heavier cup.
the name points to espresso as the intended brew method, where the medium roast and chocolate profile will pull a balanced, sweet shot. it should also work well in a french press or moka pot if you want something more approachable at home.
