this is public cupping: khipu x finca artemira at nostos, an anaerobic peru from nostos coffee.
specific tasting notes weren't provided, but as an anaerobic-processed cup of excellence lot from cajamarca, expect pronounced fruit-forward and fermentation-driven flavors typical of anaerobic coffees from this region. the mix of caturra, pink bourbon, and bourbon varietals generally contributes sweetness and complexity.
this coffee is grown in cajamarca, peru, using caturra, pink bourbon, and bourbon varietals, and processed anaerobically, where the coffee cherries ferment in a sealed, oxygen-free environment before drying. it was selected as a cup of excellence lot, placing it among the highest-ranked coffees from its harvest.
no specific brew method was listed, but anaerobic-processed coffees at this quality level typically perform well on filter or pour over, where the clean extraction highlights the complexity the process and varietals develop. avoid overextraction, as the fermentation character can tip bitter if pushed too hard.
you'd notice the olive trees first, standing either side of the st james's experience bar like they were always meant to be there. edison shehu opened nostos in nine elms in may 2021, named for the greek idea of homecoming, and that feeling carries through everything. the freeze-distilled flat white is the thing to order: milk frozen for seventeen hours, ice removed, what's left is noticeably sweeter without any added sugar. they tune water to each coffee, roast in-house, and bring in guest roasters worth paying attention to.
