Santiago
You like to drink our Brazil Espresso? Then this subscription is just right for you. The Santiago variety is a full-bodied espresso from Brazil with lots of sweetness and a very subtle acidity. As an espresso, its flavour is particularly reminiscent of dark chocolate, pecan and brown sugar. The espresso develops a pleasant sweetness and a full body without any unpleasant bitterness. A creamy, velvety texture rounds off this well-balanced espresso wonderfully. A really good 100% Arabica coffee from São José do Rio Pardo, a renowned coffee-growing region in Brazil.
Story
For the first time, we have chosen a coffee from the São José do Rio Pardo region in collaboration with Ocafi to match our Brazil Espresso line. The Arabica coffees produced there are subject to strict quality principles. Ocafi's coffee importers have a nose for really good speciality coffee. They buy the green coffee well above the market price, regularly visit the local farmers and of course taste the coffees (with their own coffee laboratory in the region). The complex flavour is emphasised by the exceptionally good characteristics of the terroir in the region. The guys from Ocafi – Niklas and Luis – also pay attention to sustainability and fairness.
Sustainable cultivation and quality awareness
Similar to wine, the origin, the cultivation and the careful harvest also form the basis for a coffee specialty. For our coffees, we only use ripe and hand-picked 100% Arabica coffee beans, because the laborious manual harvest is an essential quality criterion. Our highland coffees are natural products and are grown in shady forest gardens in a nature-friendly manner. In this way, the biological diversity in the growing region is preserved. The coffee cherries can slowly ripen in cool high altitudes with nutritious and fertile soil conditions. Under these optimal climatic conditions near the equator, the coffee plants have more time to develop their characteristic and fruity aromas.
Freshly roasted by hand
All Röststätte coffees are gently roasted by hand in Berlin so that the natural aromas can develop fully without undesirable acids being produced. For a distinctive body and a versatile taste profile in the cup, we want to use our roasting to emphasize the special features of the respective variety, farm and origin of the coffee and process it optimally. The aim is therefore to exploit the full potential of the green coffee through our type of roasting in order to also emphasize the valuable work of the producers in the growing countries. These are our quality principles - from source to the final cup.
