Typical Typikah

Typikah, organic roasting from France

The coffee was roasted by Typikah, an organic roaster from France.

The bag was picked up at the Halles du Boulingrin, the famous market in Reims, and it was the best coffee of the whole stay.

The coffee is a Timaná from Huila in Colombia, grown by Cata Reserva. Catalina and Pierre took over the farm from Rodrigo Cortés, and today they look after 30 hectares split between protected forest and agroecology. It is a Castillo, grown at 2000 meters above sea level and picked by hand. The cherries are oxidized for 24 hours under controlled conditions and then dried slowly, which is what makes it semi-washed.

On the bag the notes are caramel, orange, chocolate and nuts. As an espresso it is perfect. The chocolate is less present than you would expect, it is the orange and the caramel that balance the cup.

I prefer my espresso in Moomin cups, how about you?
