Choosing the Christmas Roast for December
When it comes to selecting the perfect roast for your Christmas, there were many choices for us to consider. However, it was a new friend of the business, coffee expert Christian Steidele, who owns and operates a coffee farm, roastery, and cafe in Indonesia that captivated our interest. Inspired by his story and expertise, we embarked on a journey to taste some exquisite Indonesian coffees, comparing them to those from Costa Rica, Kenya and Honduras. Ultimately, it was the coffees from Indonesia that stood out for their exceptional quality and flavors that compliment the traditional Christmas foods.
A Taste of Indonesia
The Indonesian coffee we chose is a Sumatra Mandheling grade 1 Arabica. This coffee is known for its full-bodied nature, rich flavor, and low acidity. Sumatra Mandheling is a specific variety of coffee that is grown and produced in Indonesia, particularly by the Mandailing ethnic group. These beans offer a unique sensory experience, characterized by a captivating balance between sweet and earthy tones, complemented by a delightful caramel sweetness.
Upon tasting the Indonesian coffee, we were immediately captivated by its distinct characteristics. The robust chocolate roast tones take center stage, intertwining with subtle accents of sage and thyme. Each sip reveals a complex flavor profile that evolves on the palate, leaving a lasting impression. The coffee culminates with a strong dark chocolate note, adding an extra layer of depth and richness to the overall experience.
The Perfect Choice for Christmas
When considering the ideal roast for your Christmas festivities, the Sumatra Mandheling from Indonesia undoubtedly deserves your attention. Its full body and rich flavor make it a delightful choice for those seeking a memorable coffee experience. Whether you prefer to enjoy it on its own or pair it with your favorite holiday treats, this coffee is sure to impress your guests and create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
It’s been a fun journey this month to find our perfect Christmas roast, one that has led us to the remarkable Sumatra Mandheling coffee from Indonesia. Its enticing aroma, balanced flavor profile, and exquisite finish make it an excellent choice.
So, why wait? Place an order today and embrace the spirit of Christmas and savor the magic of the season with a cup of Sumatra Mandheling coffee from Indonesia.
