Flavour profile:
The BLUE 8 spoils us with a great sweet Daterra smell, which remembers us of robinia honey, dark chocolate and roasted almonds. This smell is so intensive, that you nearly feel like taking a bath into this espresso. In the mouth, nuances of dark chocolate are blending with honey and caramel. Additionally, we are tasting discreet nuances of raspberry, which is brought by our favorite ethiopian lot from the last harvest.

Price:
250g: 8,80€   500g: 16,00€ 1000g: 31,00€ (1000g only with advance reservation)

Not only roasted coffee, but also green coffee loses its flavour and acidity after some months (up to the 4th harvest). That is why we only buy our green coffee seasonally fresh. Because of this reason also our assortment is seasonally aligned and is exchanging from time to time.
 
The roasting time for our coffees takes beween 14 and 18 minutes. Even for our "dark grades" the roasting break occurs before the second crack. In this way we protect the coffee against losing its natural substance of sweetness and fruit. All coffees are roasted separately, so we can manage exactly the roasting process of each coffee.
 
We wrap our roasted coffees immediately after the cooling process. At this time the fresh roasted coffee still degasses a lot of carbon dioxide which is displacing the oxygen in the non-vacuumed bag and the coffee can afterripen.

For the best development of flavour we recommend to consume the coffee between the 7th and 40th day after the roasting date.
