Mr LGB Summer is our Summer Espresso Blend for those who are looking for something clean, fruity or excellent with milk. The first part is, again, a Yirgacheffe. This Kochere is picked southwest of the town of Yirga Cheffe and near a little village of Ch'elelek'tu in the Gedeo zone. The plantation is situated around 2000 masl! It's from various Heirloom Varientals. Our volume on Kochere is relatively low, so possibly we will have another Ethiopian bean taking over by the end of August. The second component is a yearly classic. And we're so fond of it that we bought the full European lot this year. The coffee comes out of Costa Ricas' most famous region Tarrazu, more precisely San Marcos. The man running the farm is called Mario Solis. This bean grows at an 1650 meter altitude and the variety is a mix of Caturra, Catuai and Geisha(!). This coffee is a real espresso championship coffee; very well balanced, powerful, nice body and super clean. Last washed bean is one from Kenya. First 2 beans are relatively low in acidity and therefor we needed something with more fruitiness and acidity to help cut through the milk. We chose this Peaberry coffee from Cooperative Societies, Nyeri - Kirinyaga. A very well balanced bean (SL 28/34) that makes the blend also suitable for filter brewing. Don't hesitate to tell us what you think about this unique Seasonal Specialty Coffee Blend.
