Rosa Blend [Organic]

Tasting notes

About this bean

Rosa Blend [Organic] is a medium-dark roast from Tanat Coffee, sourced from Guatemala, Honduras, India, El Salvador. It features the Arabicas, Robusta variety, processed 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-dark roasts lean further into caramelised sweetness and body, with origin character starting to give way to roast character. The roaster lists tasting notes of chocolate. Tasting notes are the roaster's reference, not a guarantee; your cup will be shaped by your grinder, water and recipe. Home baristas on Puck Yeah have logged 4 shots of this bean, with an average community rating of 7.0 out of 10 across 4 ratings.
