common questions
What does Colombia Excelso Medium Roast taste like?
expect a citrus-forward cup with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest alongside red apple, then caramel, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate in the background. the washed process keeps the flavors clean and distinct rather than fruity or funky.
How is Colombia Excelso Medium Roast grown and processed?
it's grown in colombia using caturra and typica varietals and processed using the washed method, which removes the fruit before drying and typically results in a cleaner, brighter cup with well-defined acidity.
How should I brew Colombia Excelso Medium Roast?
the medium roast makes it flexible, filter methods like pour over or aeropress will highlight the citrus and red apple notes, while espresso-based brewing will bring out more of the caramel and chocolate character.
about java roastery
tucked along colmore row in birmingham's business district, java roastery does what too many coffee shops forget: they actually roast. the smell hits you first, that deep, toasted warmth that only comes from beans roasted on-site. none of that stale, weeks-old stuff from corporate chains. their 4.5 stars from nearly 800 google reviews tell the real story. regulars know the baristas by voice, not name tags. they remember your order without the forced familiarity of chain training. the coffee here tastes like someone cares about it, which they do. what sets java roastery apart isn't flashy machinery or trendy aesthetics. it's the simple fact that when you order an espresso, you're drinking beans that were probably roasted this week, maybe yesterday. that freshness comes through in every cup, bright, clean, with the kind of complexity you can't fake with syrups or fancy milk art.
