Roasted - Nepal Mount Everest Supreme Organic (Coffee of the Week)
$48.80
About the bean
Currently on the road to recovery from the 2015 earthquakes that put a pause on the country's coffee production, Nepal is re-emerging as a growing source of interest for organic specialty coffee, including our current batch of Nepal Mount Everest Supreme Organic.
Most of Nepal's coffee farmers are small-holders cultivating Arabica crops on misty mountain slopes at altitudes ranging from 800 to 1,600 meters, using traditional, organic methods to grow their beans.
Recent surveys of Nepal's coffee industry indicate around 60 per cent of the produced coffee is consumed within the country (they like their own beans!), and while Nepal is gaining in reputation overseas, its product is still hard to come by in markets like North America. We always try to include Nepalese coffee whenever we can for its unique flavour profile and the care taken by farmers we can taste in the cup.
Home to eight of the world's 10 highest mountains, the country's main claim to fame may be its tall peaks but its growing terrain and largely untapped production potential make this region one to watch for adventurers of the coffee variety.
A coffee region to follow and savour in the cup.
Quick Notes
Species: Arabica
Category: Single Origin
Cultivar: Caturra
Process: Washed
Altitude: 800 masl.
Certification: Humaniterra Foundation
Taste Test
We sampled a light American roast and a light-medium City roast as a pour over (Hario V60), French press and Aeropress (plunge-press) brew. The region's distinctive sweet-savoury character was right there in the cup: a rather robust, rustic, fruity (dried fruits, prune) coffee elevated by pronounced sweet notes of maple and, delightfully, toffee (the latter remains well into the finish). We particularly enjoyed the lighter roast and noticed that this pick at any roast profile also pairs well with additives (dairy). Unusual and tasty. As ever, we remain a fan of Nepal.
Roast recommendation: Light to medium. For an explanation of our different roasts, see here: http://greenbeanery.ca/pages/roasting-chart.

$30.53
About the bean
