Chocolatey, nutty and smooth. This coffee sees a little more development in the roaster to minimize the acidity, hone in on the body and act like a warm hug. Currently 50% Rugali Washed Bourbon, Rwanda and 50% La Casona de Doña Lina, Honey Catuai, Costa Rica.
Recommended Recipe as Espresso:
18 grams, 30-32 seconds, 40 gram extractionTasting Notes: Dark Chocolate, Mixed Nuts, SmoothOur current offering for Tipping Point is a blend of two coffees. We've profiled these two coffees separately and blended them post-roast. Our intention is to match density and bean sizing so they extract at even rates, bringing you the most flavour clear cup of coffee.
The first coffee is from a mill in Southwestern Rwanda called Rugali. It's the second year we've purchased coffee from Rugali and we couldn't be more happy. In 2018, they had an amazing crop for both production quantity and quality. Producing beautiful washed Bourbons which they're paying premiums to nearby farmers in their region of Nyamasheke.
