Jazblu Peaberry Brazil

Product Info

Candied Fig | Dark Chocolate | Smooth 

Region: Planalto da Bahia

Elevation: 950 MASL

Varietals: Yellow & Red Catuai

Process: Washed

Roast: Medium

The Coffee: A full, heavy bodied Washed Process Peaberry from the north of Brazil. This coffee is impeccably sorted and graded. Roasted on the light side of medium this PB is extremely smooth and sweet with notes of candied fig, raisin, dark chocolate, granola and finishes thick and syrupy. Brews great in all formats. The espresso is very approachable young and with little rest. We find it pulls a viscous shot with a nice bright pop to balance it out. Also worth noting this coffee presents more of its candied fig/raisin notes with a bit of granola when brewed in drip/pour over or in direct immersion (french press/siphon pot) formats.

The Producer: This lot of coffee comes from the hands of various smallholder lots in the north of Brazil where they selectively hand pick Yellow and Red Catuai. After which this coffee undergoes a washed process to extract the Peaberry's. After which they are sorted, graded, and screened. Selectively harvesting and handpicking throughout a long harvest season is not at all common to Brazil anymore, where mechanized harvest is the norm. This is a rarity for this Origin and its quality shows in this lot.

 

FAQs

We roast Monday through Wednesday and sometimes Thursdays based on orders. Coffees roasted are then available the next day. We like a minimum of a day's rest prior to release for consumption. 

We always recommend brewing your coffee following protocols found online and set by the Specialty Coffee Association (https://sca.coffee) These standards use a ratio (ml/g of water to g of coffee) that's between 14:1 to 17:1. For example, a 12oz. pour over brew 12oz (360ml/g) of water with 24g of coffee (15:1 ratio) and adjust based on your taste. These same ratios can be applied to Drip and French Press coffees where 60g of coffee per 1 quart/1liter of water (16:1) is a great starting point. Brew temperatures, we recommend a range from 190-205°F. If you don't have a thermometer, simply boil your kettle remove from heat source for 60 to 90 seconds, which should give you that range. Lastly your grind will affect your cup. Too fine will produce bitter and astringent flavors, while too coarse can produce a flat and watery cup. We like a medium fine grind for pour over and drip, while French Press should be coarse. At the end of the day always brew to your taste and what you prefer. 

We ship Monday through Friday. Orders made Monday - Thursday by 12 PM Pacific standard time will ship out the next day.
