What is score?

  • The SCA (Specialty Coffee Association) is the global body that sets the standards for specialty coffee. Their scoring system, based on a 100-point scale, evaluates coffees based on factors like aroma, flavour, acidity, body, aftertaste, sweetness, and balance. Coffees scoring 80+ are considered specialty grade, with those scoring 86+ representing the top tier of quality and complexity.

    Blends do not receive an official score because they combine coffees from multiple origins to achieve a balanced and consistent flavour profile. However, we only use coffees that score 85+ to ensure high quality in every blend.

    What is a blend?
  • A blend is a combination of coffees from different regions, farms, or cooperatives, carefully selected to create a harmonious and well-rounded flavour profile. Unlike single origin coffees, which highlight the distinct characteristics of one place, blends are crafted to achieve consistency, balance, and complexity across seasons.

    What are tasting notes?
  • Tasting notes describe the natural flavours found in the coffee, such as chocolate, citrus, or floral tones. These are not added flavours but arise from the bean’s variety, growing conditions, and roasting process. In blends, tasting notes are carefully curated by combining coffees that complement and enhance each other.

    What is the processing method?
  • This refers to how coffee beans are removed from the cherry after harvesting, which influences their final taste. Because blends contain coffees from multiple origins, they may feature different processing methods, such as washed, natural, or honey, contributing to their unique depth and complexity.

Mantiqueira de Minas, Brazil

The Mantiqueira de Minas region, located in the northern Serra da Mantiqueira Mountain range in Minas Gerais, Brazil, is known for producing unique, high-quality coffees. The area, covering 25 municipalities, is home to over 8,200 smallholder producers. Its distinct terrain and traditional farming methods contribute to exceptional coffee profiles. The region’s coffees reflect both its terroir and the commitment of local producers. Mantiqueira de Minas is officially recognized for its unique sensory qualities and rich coffee heritage. The region continues to evolve with a focus on innovative flavours.

WASHED | NATURAL PROCESSED

The washed process involves removing the outer skin and fruit from the coffee cherries before fermentation. After the cherries are depulped, the beans are fermented for 8 to 72 hours, depending on the conditions, to remove the remaining mucilage. The beans are then washed in fresh water and dried to the desired moisture content. This method enhances the coffee's clean, bright flavour and clarity.

The natural process involves drying the whole coffee cherry with its skin still intact. The cherries are spread out in the sun and dried for several weeks, during which time the fruit’s sugars and flavours infuse into the bean. After drying, the beans are hulled to remove the outer layers. This method tends to produce coffee with fruity, complex flavours and a fuller body.
