    I struggled with this one as I feel like often do with Ecuadorian coffees. The notes tend to be more subtle and the glycerine mouthfeel makes it a bit harder for me to pickup. I didn't really do anything differently actually, but my last couple really brought out rooibos, brown sugar, a touch of rose and raspberry. A very easy to drink cup.

More Details

Roast Level: Light
Light roast coffee is a delicately roasted coffee that retains more of the beans' natural flavors and characteristics. Light-roasted coffees have bright acidity, complex fruit, and floral notes. Light roast coffee does not have less caffeine than darker roasts because caffeine levels remain stable during roasting.
Bean Source Country: Ecuador
Ecuadorian specialty coffee is characterized by its diverse microclimates, fertile volcanic soil, and high elevations in the Andes, resulting in beans with distinctive flavor profiles. These coffees often exhibit bright acidity, medium to full body, and complex flavors, ranging from fruity and floral to sweet and chocolatey.
Bean Source Region: Pinchicha
Pichincha refers to an active Andean stratovolcano and the region around it in Ecuador. Pinchica coffee, grown on farms neighboring cloud forests and towering volcanoes, exhibits a delicate balance of acidity and body. Pichincha's beans encapsulate the region's rich biodiversity with flavor notes that often hint at tropical fruit, floral undertones, and a touch of nutty sweetness. The cool mountain temperatures combined with the equatorial sun provide a slow maturation for the cherries, helping to develop deep, complex flavor.
