Cold brewing brings forward the full bodied natural sweetness with very little acidity. This coffee is grown at very high elevations to provide coffee beans that mature slowly, delivering a sweeter and more complex taste. La Minita’s Tarrazu estate produces some of the finest coffees in the world, which is why Oren’s has been roasting this coffee for over 30 years.

    I'm quite happy with this espresso given it's versatility. I usually like my medium roast espresso a little bit more complex and floral. I get a bit of florality, but it's more red berry/blackberry driven, with roasted walnut.

    It's balanced and very easy to work with for milk drinks. My wife has been picky about her lattes recently and she's been happy with each one I've made. Has a nice mouthfeel and a medium crema.

    I can see why this has been a long-lived bestseller for Oren's!

    Cupping Method:I ordered it from Trade, and I've been pulling it at 95 degrees C on my La Spaziale A53 espresso machine.
