Three Ridings Coffee - Anise Barrel Aged by Diego Bedoya - Light Roast 170g
The most mind-blowing coffee we have ever had the pleasure of roasting!
Yep, we're not kidding, this stuff is WILD.
The aroma alone is a huge smack in the face and when brewed it only gets better.
Expect huge amounts of marzipan sweetness akin to a big chunk of Battenberg cake, a super creamy mouthfeel like white chocolate and the booziest aniseed liquor finish you'll ever taste - Pernot/Sambuca/Anisette.
The coffee comes from renowned producer Diego Bedoya and here's a bit about the processing:
-
The varietal is a Tabi (already a great start).
-
Picked and Anaerobically fermented for 240 hours.
-
Dried on drying beds within a marquee for one month.
-
The coffee is then milled.
-
The milled greens then go into an Anisette Liquor barrel to age for a further month.
