The fragrance is a fruity banana with milk cocoa on the nose. The cup has floral with a velvet milk chocolate and caramel body. The acidity is very gentle in the malic family with pear type notes. The sweetness of this coffee makes for a rich taste that lingers smoothly in the after taste. Exemplary Arabica coffee beans are loaded into a vintage cast iron German, probat roaster. Union roast only in small batches, paying close attention to developing the raw potential and individual characteristics that each coffee requires to bring you unique bold flavours and natural sweetness. Drawing on the skill, experience and intimate knowledge of each coffee, samples are pulled from the beans tumbling inside the drum, responding to the colour change from sage green through straw yellow towards chestnut brown and cracking as they double in size. Adjustments to the temperature of the flame are made throughout roasting for flavour, not colour to achieve union hand roasted's exacting standard.
100% Arabica.
