colombia coffee
by pirates of coffee · mississauga, canada
you'll taste milk chocolate before dark chocolate. this is melon nectar: colombia co-ferment washed, an experimental colombia from pirates of coffee.
it tastes of milk chocolate and dark chocolate, offering a clean, cocoa-driven cup that sits at the approachable end of experimental processing.
it is grown in colombia using caturra and bourbon varieties, then put through an experimental co-fermentation stage before being finished as a washed coffee.
filter brewing, such as a v60 or chemex, will keep the washed clarity intact and let the chocolate notes come through cleanly, though it should also pull well as espresso.
the parking lot off davand drive doesn't look like much, but inside pirates of coffee, something special happens. beans crack in small batches while the espresso machine hisses through another cortado. this is what happens when someone actually cares about coffee instead of just selling it. you can taste the difference immediately. that first sip carries weight, complexity that chain stores gave up chasing years ago. regulars know this. they drive across mississauga because consistency here means something different than everywhere else. the 546 google reviews averaging 4.9 stars tell the real story. people don't rave about adequate coffee. they talk about the barista who remembers their order, beans roasted days not weeks ago, cups that make monday mornings bearable. independent roasters like this survive because they refuse to compromise. every shot pulled here matters. every bag sold represents hours of careful roasting, testing, adjusting. that's rare these days.
