Green Coffee

I purchased this bean few weeks ago. I had roasted this beans, this beans is generally drier due to its processing method. No astringency found, i placed this order again. Seller is giving more discounts if order more. Thanks to the seller.

In comparison with other region that is perhaps way over of our budget that is panama Geisha being 250 g = Rm 120. I certainly would hesitate to purchase it although the taste/aroma/finishing are exquisite. Ethiopia is certainly would a good rival to any Geisha coffee and it is well within our budget. Highly recommend to for strong fruity/floral with intense purple fruit taste ( great with Club soda ) or cold brew.

Honduras region is something i am looking forward to sample because of it low availability. Roasting this coffee gave a such deep woodsy/earthy aroma that pique my interest even further. Plus with price is fairly reasonable this is an under rated coffee. While aroma is nutty woody creamy, it has a quite a middle note in terms of sweet acidity similar to a calamensi ( limau kasturi ) / or plum as suggested and slight note of almond nutty taste. In terms finishing, it linger in the mouth give a fading medium mouthfeel and nutty/woody after taste. I highly recommend to drink it with fresh milk , excellent for espresso but must not roast it to medium dark. Definitely worth to buy.

I am a bit cautious whenever I came across with any African coffee as they a difficult to control it quality. Since it is used wash method, this bean is a lot denser than their close cousin like Ethiopia. The aroma itself before roast smells like candy berries. Once I began my roasting, the challenge is to control the temperature diligently. slight miscalculation would result an over cooked dark roast which taste bad. Luckily that this batch turn out quite wonderful outcome. The aroma smell like a pungent dried lemon grass / Eucalyptus ( medicinal smell in short ). soft medium body with a full blast of orange with a little zing of berries and quite juicy aftertaste. And this is just 2 days after roasting and not fully degassing. Recommend to try it and learn it.
