Description
For a long time we have stocked the Yellow Catuai grown on the Fazenda Rio Verde in Mantiqueira and we have now decided to expand our range to also include their Yellow Bourbon. More complex than the Yellow Catuai, it exhibits soft notes of cocoa, caramel and hazelnuts with a light citrus acidity. The ideal single origin espresso, particularly suited to making Flat Whites and Lattes. Also suitable for cafetiere and pour over brewing as an interesting after dinner alternative to our Blue Sumatra.
Winner of a two star Great Taste Award in 2018 in the Espresso Category. The judges said:
"This was one of those coffees when we all looked at each other and smiled. The description fits what we got - it is all there, a well developed roast with caramel and hazelnuts and a balanced acidity on the finish. A crowd pleaser."
