About the process

All the coffees that are part of this blend are dried in static boxes. The coffee remains still and is not turned over during the drying process, hence the name static boxes. These boxes are 1 metre deep with a volumetric capacity of 15000 litres of cherry. This equates to 25-30 bags of green coffee, each weighing 60 kilogrammes. These boxes have a vented grill at the bottom. This allows air to circulate from below upwards through the drying coffee. Two thermometers at different depths ensure that a safe temperature is kept below 40°C. After the coffee is dried, it is left to rest for approximately 1-2 weeks before being milled. This method has allowed the production of more fruity and prominent profiles, in this case a more comforting and rich coffee.

Old School daily driver

Expect a creamy chocolate & nutty body with full marzipan sweetness. These comforting flavours will take you back to times when coffee was just coffee. But keeping the modernity of having great quality coffee. This comforting daily driver will soothe your mornings.
