Post Kalgoorlie Coffee Review - Karvan

Jerry goes a little more in depth on two of his favorite beans from the guys at Leaf Bean Machine....
The first is Karvan Coffee - Colombia Jairo Arcila Villarazo
Origin: San Adolfo, Huila
Processing: Natural Anaerobic with Tartaric Acid & Cinnamon
Varietal: 100% Pink Bourbon
Altitude: 1650 - 1700 MASL
Taste notes:
Boozy - Cinnamon - Ripe Fruit
The Pink Bourbon coffee varietal is a rare and coveted find. It is a
standout because of its striking colour but also because of its sweet,
complex flavour.
lairo Arcila made sure that the day his coffee was picked that it went to
be processed immediately. During the anaerobic fermentation period
tartaric acid and cinnamon were added before it was dried on raised
beds.
A component of our Christmas blend which has been saved to produce
an exclusive roast of a limited 16 250g bags.

The second is Karvan Coffee - Ethiopia Shantawene Gr.1
Origin: Sidamo
Processing: Washed
Varietal: Heirloom
Altitude: 1900 - 2300 MASL
In the Cup: Apricot - Jasmine - Bergamot
Brothers Asefa and Mulugeta Dukamo founded Daye Bensa, a coffee grower and exporter in Ethiopia. Daye Bensa exports coffee from its farm, in the Shantawene Village, as well as from "out-growers" (or smallholders) villages. Daye Bensa rewards the top three farmers from each of the three villages with certificates and premiums, recognizing them for consistently
delivering high-quality cherries.
This is a beautifully complex and sophisticated coffee and its quality is
indicative of the effort that has gone into growing it.
