This Colombian from the Río Juanambú region delivers a richly comforting, dessert-like profile rooted in deep caramelization and balanced bittersweetness.
Dry fragrance greets with warm cocoa and brown sugar, accented by cinnamon stick and a touch of molasses—evoking fresh-baked spiced brownies or dulce de leche.
Wet aroma intensifies the indulgence: bittersweet caramel, brûléed sugars, and fine dark cocoa powder, creating an almost chocolate-shop allure.
In the cup, caramelized sugar sweetness takes center stage, beautifully enhanced by a subtle savory edge that transforms it into classic salted caramel. The finish brings layered nuance—soft whole spices, plump raisin, and a gentle rindy citrus accent (think candied orange peel) that adds pleasant, controlled bitterness without sharpness.
The interplay of sweet and bitter elements is exceptionally well-balanced, shining brightest at City+ through Full City roast levels, where body thickens, sweetness rounds, and roast development amplifies the caramel-chocolate core without overwhelming the origin character.
Acidity emerges gently as the cup cools—bright but never dominant—adding lift and clarity to the richer notes.
At medium to dark roasts the coffee yields deeply chocolate-forward espresso shots with velvety texture, lingering salted-caramel sweetness, and hints of dark cocoa and spice—ideal for straight shots or milk-based drinks that highlight its luxurious depth.
A crowd-pleasing, versatile Colombian—elegant in filter, indulgent in espresso, and always reliably delicious.
