There are only a handful coffees that we purchase year on year, without fail. This coffee is one of them. Consistency needs understanding, hard work and dedication. Thanks to Aveen’s genius, coffees from Melkodige are consistently beautiful. Every harvest we cup them to realize we love them, as deeply as ever.
Roasted fast but with a more traditional espresso-oriented roast profile, this is a heartwarming coffee with a huge milk chocolate body and mild, but distinct fruity overtones. This has been our go-to coffee for straight espressos or milk-based beverages for a few years now. Works great for moka-pot and immersion based manual brew methods as well.
