cascara kaffeekirschentee from koffietied röstkaffee is not a roasted coffee but a dried coffee cherry tea, made from the husks of coffee cherries grown in peru. cascara is steeped like a tea rather than brewed through conventional coffee methods, producing a light, fruity drink with a character quite different from espresso or filter coffee. if you're curious about the fruit side of the coffee plant rather than the roasted bean, this is a direct way to explore that. brew it as a hot steep or cold infuse, adjusting steep time to control sweetness and body.

common questions

What does Cascara Kaffeekirschentee taste like?

cascara generally produces a light, fruity, slightly tangy drink with a mild natural sweetness, derived from the dried coffee cherry husk rather than the roasted bean. the specific tasting notes for this peruvian cascara were not provided, so the best way to know is to brew a small test batch.

How is Cascara Kaffeekirschentee grown and processed?

the coffee cherries come from peru, and cascara is made by drying the outer husk of the cherry after the coffee seed has been removed. no further processing details beyond the peruvian origin were supplied.

How should I brew Cascara Kaffeekirschentee?

cascara is brewed as a tea, not as coffee, so steep the dried husks in hot water, typically around 70, 80 degrees celsius for several minutes, or cold steep overnight in the fridge for a lighter, smoother result. no specific brew ratios were provided by the roaster, so start with roughly one tablespoon of cascara per 200ml of water and adjust from there.

about koffietied röstkaffee

koffietied röstkaffee takes roasting seriously. that's the through-line here, the thing that separates a place like this from the rest of the city's coffee landscape. hamburg has a real coffee culture, port city history and all, and garstedter weg 215 sits well within that tradition without leaning on it as a crutch. you're not coming here because it's convenient or because it showed up first in a search result. you're coming because the coffee is actually thought about, from green bean selection through to whatever lands in your cup. the northwest of the city doesn't get as much specialty attention as altona or the schanzenviertel, which makes a roaster operating out here feel like a genuine find. stop in on a weekday morning when things are quieter.
