Really fun and funky cup. It is slightly herbal/vegetal like green tea but enjoyably so. Central is a big hit of dried strawberry, peach, and mango. The finish is slightly winey.
It's rare that I come across a genuinely new coffee tasting note, so seeing “Ispahan” from the roaster immediately stood out. I did a bit of research. It's a reference borrowed from the pastry world, where it describes a combination of rose, raspberry, and lychee. When used in coffee, it maybe signals a highly aromatic and expressive cup, with floral notes leaning toward rose, a bright red fruit acidity, and a sweet, slightly exotic fruit character. It's less a precise tasting term and more a creative shorthand, but when it shows up, it usually points to a coffee with striking florals and layered fruit complexity, which I do get in this coffeeCupping Method:Coffee beans came from Bean Archives. 17:1, 92C on v60
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:
Colombia
Colombian coffees are known for their balanced taste, featuring bright acidity, medium body, and a range of flavors, including fruity notes, caramel sweetness, and nutty undertones. Colombia's worldwide reputation for producing great coffee at scale is well-deserved. Increasingly some of the best microlot specialty roasts are coming from Colombia thanks to their expertise in cultivation and process.
Bean Source Region:
Huila
The coffee-growing region of Huila, located in southwestern Colombia, is renowned for producing high-quality coffee due to a combination of factors, including its high elevations (1,200 to 2,000 meters above sea level), tropical climate with well-defined wet and dry seasons, rich volcanic soil, and diverse coffee varietals (such as Caturra, Colombia, Bourbon, and Typica). These conditions contribute to the slow development of coffee cherries, resulting in Huila coffee's bright acidity, medium to full body, and complex flavor profile, often including fruity, floral, and nutty notes. Combined with Colombia's strong technical expertise in cultivation and processing, results in some of the world's best specialty coffees.
