Coffee 10 Blend - 250g

Tasting notes

This blend is called 10 Blend, to celebrate my ten years of activity and passion for speciality coffee and at the same time the 10 years of Terres de Café. 10 is profiled as a velvety smooth body with an explosion of fruit on the finish.

A gourmet cup, fruity and balanced. Ethiopia for sugar and delicious cocoa, Uganda for equilibrium and sweet fruit, Burundi for red fruit intensity. Nose notes of cocoa, sweet spices and honey, followed by some fruity notes.

In the mouth, a very sweet beginning in a velvety body, always with honey and spices and an explosion of fruit, raspberry, pear, apricot. A long, gourmet and praline finish. Roasted in France by Terres de Café

This coffee is roasted for espresso methods.

What is a score?

Our product range is categorised by score: 80+, 85+, 88+ We have the "Specialty Coffee Association of America" to thank for the system of "scores", who defined a very strict ratings protocol to evaluate the quality of speciality coffee. This ratings system enables players within the sector, as well as coffee lovers, to share a common language. Within this tasting protocol, the main criteria for the evaluation of a coffee are noted: odour, aroma, after-taste, acidity, body, harmony, purity...

The final score classifies the coffee within a hierarchy unique to speciality coffee. The coffee must achieve a score of at least 80/100 to be considered a speciality coffee.

A detailed look at the scores attributed to speciality coffee:

• Score 80+ = very good coffee
• Score 85+ = exceptional coffee
• Score 88+ = grand cru* (great vintage)

Our blends, being mixtures of multiple coffees, are excluded from the rating system, although they are all comprised of speciality coffees.

*The SCAA classifies 90+ coffees as "Outstanding". We consider an 88+ coffee to reflect a quality that is already outstanding, already representing the excellence of the sector. In this regard, it is a Grand Cru.
