Chocolate
While we all love the unique expression of a single-origin coffee, sometimes a blend of origins on the espresso machine is a thing of beauty. This blend brings a depth of flavour which is often difficult to achieve with cherries from one farm. The Crowd Pleaser blend combines the ripe red fruits of a natural process Ethiopian coffee and the deeper chocolate tones of a smooth Brazilian coffee, put together in a ratio that allows both to shine and complement one another. This blend will deliver flavours of chocolate and cherry through both espresso and milk.
Every coffee has a unique taste, which stems from its three fundamental properties: bitterness, acidity and body. The balances between these allow to distinguish the taste of one bean from another. Find out if this is the right coffee for you by looking at its characteristics below.
