The tasting notes for Keramo comprise a long list of bright & sweet accolades. This lot boasts a sparkling array of deep berry sweetness to lively strawberry acidity. There are hyper floral overtones that permeate the palate long after the sip. The structure has a firm, crystalline quality. Notes go further as the roast opens up into week four with juniper berry, pointed minerality & a sustained floral finish.

This is a mind altering lot, from Cup of Excellence winning producers. The people of Keramo Village & Daye Bensa Station have an instrinsic understanding for producing clean Landrace articulation. These seeds are dense and packed with cherry impartation due to the staggering elevation. The coffee is wet fermented for 36-72 hours & dried on raised African beds for up to two weeks to hit a stable moisture content.

All of the logistics have aligned for us; from farm, to processing, sourcing & now roasting. This coffee just keeps on giving, if you can, wait for the last brew(s) until a month+ after the roast date, it's astounding!

Roast on Mondays. Order by Sunday for next Monday's roast.

Best cupped or brewed two weeks+ after roast date. Peak rest is 3weeks+. Enjoy whenever you want.
