dark galaxy is a washed colombian caturra from mothership coffee, roasted dark. the washed process keeps the cup clean and precise, letting the caturra variety express itself without the added weight of fruit fermentation. expect a citrus backbone, lemon and grapefruit up front with zesty brightness, settling into milk chocolate and dark chocolate through the finish. the dark roast adds body and bitterness, so brewing methods that balance extraction work well here. a french press or espresso machine will suit the roast level, pulling out the chocolate depth, while a pour-over can highlight the citrus edge if you keep water temperature slightly lower.

common questions

What does Dark Galaxy taste like?

dark galaxy leads with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, then moves into milk chocolate and dark chocolate toward the finish. the washed process keeps those flavors clean and distinct rather than fruity or syrupy.

How is Dark Galaxy grown and processed?

it is a caturra varietal grown in colombia and processed using the washed method, which removes the fruit skin and mucilage before drying to produce a cleaner, brighter cup.

How should I brew Dark Galaxy?
