Barista Bitch Dialing In

Roasted 05/24/24 Farm - Finca Los Pinos Process - Anaerobic Elevation - 1,800 MASL Varietal - Typica and Ihcafé 90 Golden Raisins, Lemon, Black Tea and Plum Sweetness.  Rather nice a bit drying and a little too taniac for me. 

Roasted 05-09-24 Varietal: Catuai 62 Process: 60 hour dry Anaerobic, 205 hour, thermal shock Chocolate, Hazelnut, Coconut, Creamy and sweet. It was delicious. Definitely a daily drinker, but decadent. 

 Roasted 03-22-24 Herbaceous, Grapefruit, Green Apple and Graham Cracker.

 Strawberry, Raspberry, Alcohol and Chocolate.

Ruby Grapefruit, Apple, Lemon and Graham Cracker. 

 Strawberry, berry jam and dark chocolate

Floral (dandelion tea?), green peach, chocolate and cranberry.

 Earthy, Black Tea and Spice.

Mango, BlackBerry, cherry and cocoa nibs. I am finally uploading some of my notes from last year where I didn't post. I can't remember much and unfortunately Luminous's website doesn't archive their old coffees which I imagine would be a fainting challenge seeing as how many different coffees they have throughout the year. 

 Orange, Sour Green Apple, Cloves and complex. 

I don't remember when this roasted I unfortunately didn't record it in my notes. Pink Bourbon Varietal Double Washed Anaerobic Process "Cafe 1959 produces yet another hyper digital, flavor resolution masterpiece! 72 hours or closed fermentation and 2 separate washing cycles makes this visualized feast a complex array of tongue melting harmony. Presented in light form, to showcase maximum processing power." Watermelon, Lemon-Lime and fruit punch.  I love the aesthetic of Cool Roast Curves, the retro-80s/90s is refreshing as well as the VHS inspired packaging.

Roasted 03/27/23 19.5g in 28 seconds 24g out Very creamy, mango and chocolate marshmallow.

Roasted 03/22/23 I brewed this in a Kalita wave using notneutral filters with a Niche Zero grinder. My recipe is 28g coffee, 400g hot water not necessarily aiming for any particular time, but somewhere between four and five and half minutes. I try to do a 50g bloom in the first 45 seconds then three or four more pours. 36. Raspberry, Cacao, Mango and Black Cherry. I struggle to describe this as a fruit bomb, the cacao is a little overpowering and normally when I think of fruit bombs I think of something with more aqblueberry notes.

Interesting, not the best Koji I've had, I feel like I have had so many El Vergel coffees that I am growing tired of all Colombians.
