Origins
How and where the coffee was grown and harvested as well as the conditions under which it travelled play a significant role in its flavor. Before the next crucial moment, select arabica and robusta are brought to the roastery. And this is where we begin our detailed description of the Flavors in Tandem espresso. Our roaster plays an almost central role. In the good sense of the word, this alchemist cannot do without skill, enthusiasm, and playfulness. In the case of an espresso blend, he also needs extraordinary ingenuity and many years of experience. What is so difficult about making an espresso blend? We decided to base it on the uniqueness of each of the ingredients, which, however, must harmonize in the final composition. Each Single Origin Specialty Coffee requires a specific temperature, roast length, and airflow intensity through the process. That is why we always roast varieties separately to a specific roasting profile. However, we need to fine-tune all the flavors in an espresso blend so that the overall composition does not appear angular, bitter, arid, or sour. So the roaster needs to focus on specific flavors and aromas, i.e., roasting to bring out some coffee notes and suppress others. That is why the beans in this blend are both lighter and darker. By blending them, we have managed to create a delicious, delicate, and balanced espresso. Our roasting method is reminiscent of the increasingly popular "Scandinavian style" roasting, which is based on a slow and longer roast. However, it can result in unnecessarily acidic coffee.
More familiar methods include ''Italian roasting'', characterized by the dark color of the beans and often a bitter taste. We do not lean towards this method when making espresso either. Espresso Blend Flavors in Tandem is made up of coffees roasted separately and in such a way that the resulting taste composition has a sweet, fruity, and chocolate-almond impression. The coffee can be prepared in many ways. It is classically suitable for automatic and lever coffee machines, but the subtle flavor nuances can be enjoyed on a filter, in a Bialetti, vacuum pot, etc. Most Italian or Scandinavian roasted blends do not give coffee drinkers this experience and a wide range of applications. Just as we pay special attention to roasting, we have carefully selected the individual coffees for this espresso blend. To complete the information, we have included a short description of each. Brazilian arabica has a great reputation worldwide. The coffee plantations are mainly tended by small farmers, often high up in the mountains.
Thanks to the volcanic bedrock, the length of sunshine, and the humidity, they produce velvety coffee. It tastes sweet and fruity, often with notes of chocolate or nuts. Guatemala is one of the top producers of fine arabica. Small plantations are found mainly in the country's southwest, in a hilly landscape dotted with caves, rivers, and rainforests. The flavor of the arabica is due to the frequent rains, the clean nature, and the careful harvesting and processing of the coffee plants. The beans from Guatemala give the drink a full-bodied, low acidity, and pleasant fruitiness. Indian-washed robusta is characterized by a fantastically full, dense flavor reminiscent of chocolate pudding. The local coffee plants are grown in the shade at lower altitudes and surrounded by gardens of spices and fruits, whose aroma is naturally reflected in the beans.
