Off-Trend Espresso

10.5 GBP

OFF-TREND ESPRESSO No fads, no trends, just traditionally delicious and simply accessible. Off-Trend is simply a darker version of our Heavy Bag, with those same beans, but utilising a roast profile that adheres to the traditional approach, yielding a bold taste that comes out full bodied and thick. We enjoy this coffee mainly as an after-dinner digestif, or in a larger cappuccino. This coffee is quite forgiving and can give solid results when brewed with a domestic espresso machine. Currently featuring 80% Cosagual, Honduras (washed) 20% Aprocassi, Peru (washed) COSAGUAL, HONDURAS COUNTRY: Honduras LOCATION: Gualsince, Lempira Department PRODUCER: Cooperativa Cosagual PROCESS: Washed CULTIVAR: Catuai, IHACafe-90 ALTITUDE: 1400 – 1600 masl HARVEST: November – March Cosagual mission is to promote development process in families dedicated to agricultural production with gender equality and in harmony with the environment, providing services with responsibility, efficiency and commitment to their cooperative members. They are also certified by Fair Trade and Organic. The coffee harvest takes place between November and March. Only the mature cherries are picked to ensure the best possible cup quality. The harvest is carried out and transported on the same day to the cooperative wet mill. The centralization of the wet mill reduces the impact on the environment, through a more efficient use of water and better management of coffee by-products (pulp and honey waters). APROCASSI, PERU COUNTRY: Peru LOCATION: San Ignacio, Cajamarca PRODUCER: Aprocassi PROCESS: Washed CULTIVAR: Catimor ALTITUDE: 1200 – 1900 masl HARVEST: April – September Aprocassi’s history goes back to 1997 when San Ignacio families were in conflict with a Canadian mining multinational whose activity would have a massive impact on the ecosystem. This opposition was backed by the Catholic church and farmers alike, who envisioned a more sustainable future for themselves. With this in mind, reverend Humberto Tapia Días created an association to provide an alternative for the area’s economy based on organic agriculture. Aprocassi was born in March 2000 and became a cooperative later in 2010. The cooperative develops social and environmental projects. GUATEMALA COUNTRY: Guatemala LOCATION: Various PRODUCER: Union Vegetal, local growers PROCESS: Washed CULTIVAR: Bourbon, Catuai, Caturra & Typica ALTITUDE: 1300 masl HARVEST: October – February Guatemalan coffee is recognized worldwide for its quality. Guatemala was the first coffee producing country in the world to establish a denomination of origin system to characterise its eight producing regions. It is the 10th largest coffee exporter in the world. Guatemala SHB EP is sourced from various farms located more than 4,500 feet (1,372 meters) above sea level. Coffee cultivated at these altitudes matures slowly and grows to be harder and denser than beans grown at lower elevations, creating the strictly hard bean (SHB) with inherent consistency and rich taste attributes.
