‘TRIPLE C’ BLEND
Ok; for all our krazy koffee enthusiasts we have a more than special treat for you this month!!, and it comes from the Koffee Baron’s creative coffee mind himself.
It’s our ‘Triple C’ blend the name revolves around the worlds’ three (‘Triple’) most popular Coffee Certifications (‘C’) :-
- Fairtrade
- Rainforest Alliance
- Organic
Creating a blend is no easy task, it takes patience and time along with a great coffee mind to know which bean to use and how long they should be roasted, then what percentages of each you should use to create just the right balance in flavours, aroma and body.
So the first of our three certified coffees is from the ‘Organic’ variety and it derives from a bean in Papua New Guinea, a medium style roast helps release all the chocolaty/ nutty goodness we know and love about PNG coffee.
Moving forward, the ‘Fairtrade’ Certified variety is grown in Mexico and this bean provides strong – gutsy acidity to the blend. We keep it to the softer side whilst roasting and this helps balance the acidity to remove any sharpness at the front of the palate.
Now last but far from least…our third variety is a Certified Rainforest Alliance’ coffee from Brazil which has been carefully chosen for its natural ‘espresso style’ using three varieties of Arabica coffees of the single estate.
Known for having a beautiful, balanced sweetness and ripe acidity it’s perfect to maintain the strength in the blend yet add that yummy, caramel sweetness we know and love about Yahava Koffee!
‘Triple C’ will sell super fast as the Baron doesn’t spend all that much time around the roaster these days, but when he does, great things happen.
ENJOY!
