colombia coffee · decaf
by sweetleaf coffee roasters · new york city, usa
you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is decaf colombia, a washed colombia from sweetleaf coffee roasters.
it leads with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, then moves into a winey character with a cocoa finish, giving it a range that goes from crisp and bright to slightly rich.
it's a caturra varietal grown in huila, colombia, and processed using the washed method, which removes the fruit before drying and produces a cleaner, more defined cup.
a pour-over will emphasize the citrus and brightness from the washed process, while a french press will bring out more of the cocoa and winey notes.
