you'll taste brown sugar before milk chocolate. this is dcf, colombia excelso, a washed colombia from undercover roasters hq.
it tastes of brown sugar, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate, with the washed process keeping the cup clean and the sweetness well defined rather than jammy or heavy.
it's a colombian excelso grade coffee grown using the caturra varietal and processed using the washed method, which strips the fruit before drying and produces a cleaner, more straightforward cup.
the clean, balanced profile suits both filter brewing, where the chocolate and sugar notes have room to open up, and espresso, where the darker cocoa tones give it enough body to hold up with or without milk.
slow mornings on victoria street have a particular rhythm, and undercover roasters hq fits into that rhythm without forcing anything. abbotsford isn't the flashiest part of melbourne's coffee scene, but it's got a quiet seriousness to it, and this roaster seems to belong to that same register. you're getting something made by people who care about the sourcing and the process, not just the speed of service. the roastery side of the operation means the coffee in your cup has a shorter chain from green bean to grind than most places can claim. worth going on a weekday morning when the street is still finding its feet, and ordering a cortado to see where their current roast is sitting.
