Description
– Juan Valdez coffee, famous for its rich, dark roast and full-bodied flavor, originates from the Andes highlands of central Colombia, sourced from small family-owned farms participating in cooperatives.
– Specifically sourced from the Antioquia region near Medellin, Excelso coffee offers exceptional balance with mild acidity, moderate sweetness, and hints of roasty flavors, featuring prominent bakers chocolate or cocoa notes during cupping, with subtle citrus hints.
– As the cup cools or blended with milk, dark cherry flavors emerge, providing a delightful finish to each sip.
– Excelso denotes a grading system for bean size and quality in Colombia, not variety or origin, yet the focus remains on consistent excellence in flavor and quality by sourcing from specific regions.
– Prepared through European Preparation (EP), the beans undergo meticulous hand- sorting to remove defects and foreign material, further enhancing overall excellence.
