We roasted the last batch of the Aricha #28 yesterday, so if you are one of many fans of this coffee, make sure you get your hands on some of it before it is gone.
We will not get a similar coffee for a long time, but we do have some washed Ethiopian on its way.
We recieved some more coffee from Kenya today. 3 tonns had to be carried down to the basement. We will start test roasting the coffee next week and the coffee will be for sale from tuesday the 4th of August.
We are sold out of coffee from Fazenda Sao Judas Tadeu, and therefore we have adjusted the espresso blend a little bit while we are waiting for new lots to arrive.
The beloved Aeropress in now back in stock at TW’s.
You can get your hands on it in the shop or via the webshop.
We are proud to announce that we just bought the no. 11 lot at the 2009 Guatemala Cup of Excellence.
The coffee is grown on the farm San Antonio De Esquipulas y Anexos and is a mix of Bourbón, Catuaí and Caturra.
Here is a taste description:
Aroma: Hints of almonds and chocolate.
Acidity: Tropical and stone fruit-like acidity. Lively and refreshing.
Mouthfeel: A clean cup with a fat texture without being heavy. Intense sweetness and a really nice balance.
Flavour: Intense chocolate flavour. Hints of rasberries and peach. Sweet finish.
The coffee was bought for USD 7.45 per lb. (453g) of green unpacked coffee ex. transportation cost. This is about USD 6.19 above fair trade price. The farmer gets 80% of the money, the remaining 20% goes to managing the Cup of Excellence system.
We just recieved 33 bags og coffee from Badnekhan estate in India. We know this was a favourite among a lot of our customers, but that is not why we decided to buy it again in 2009. The reason for buying the coffee 2 years in a row is because it once again was outstanding when we tasted it blind against other Indian coffees.
After testing some new roast profiles we are ready to roast it on the big roaster on Tuesday 7th of July.
In other words the coffee will be for sale from around 1pm on July 7th.
