brazil + papua new guinea coffee
by snowy elk coffee company · cheyenne, usa
you'll taste tropical fruit before milk chocolate. this is howlin' wolf espresso - 5lb, a washed brazil + papua new guinea from snowy elk coffee company.
it carries tropical fruit alongside milk chocolate and dark chocolate, so expect a cup that balances brighter fruit tones with a chocolatey, moderately bitter finish. the washed process keeps those flavors clean and fairly distinct rather than jammy or heavy.
the blend draws from two origins, brazil and papua new guinea, and both components are washed, meaning the coffee cherry skin and pulp are removed before the beans are dried. washed processing generally produces a cleaner, more straightforward flavor profile compared to natural or honey methods.
it's formulated for espresso, so a machine or moka pot will suit it best and let the chocolate and fruit notes express well under pressure. if you're brewing it as drip or pour-over, use a medium-fine grind and expect the tropical fruit character to come through more prominently.
