Tasting notes

About this bean

Mexico, San Miguel Guerrero is a medium roast from Rooftop Coffee Roasters, sourced from Mexico. It is prepared using the washed method. Washed processing removes the cherry pulp before drying, which tends to highlight the bean's varietal character and produce a cleaner cup with brighter acidity. Medium roasts balance origin character with developed sweetness from caramelisation. They are generally the most forgiving roast level for espresso. The roaster lists tasting notes of Dried Date, brown sugar and milk chocolate. Tasting notes are the roaster's reference, not a guarantee; your cup will be shaped by your grinder, water and recipe.
