Elixir Espresso – Peru Demetrio Paredes

Blackberry, orange, cacao nibs

 

The Elixir Espresso represents our quest to showcase fruit flavours in coffee; we roast light to maintain all of the delicate, complex notes the coffees have to offer. This version from Demetrio Paredes and his family in Callayuc, Cajamarca, Peru is a testament to that – vibrantly fruity and complex, with a sweet finish.

 

 

Grown at 2,100 meters above sea level in rich volcanic soil. The best cherries were hand-picked and sorted, then pulped and washed to remove the mucilage, then sundried for 15 days.

Demetrio and his family began producing coffee at El Cerro farm in Callayuc in 2013. Through their cultivation and care, coffee has become a significant contributor to their family’s economy, enabling them to send their children to school. During the harvest season, Demetrio and his wife provide jobs to the local community.

This coffee has consistently popped on the cupping table – when pulled as espresso it showcases notes of blackberry jam, orange and cacao nibs, with a lovely elderflower syrupy finish.

 

 

Elixir works wonderfully on its own as espresso, but can also serve as an excellent base for milk drinks.
