Sourcing note

Las Flores Chirso:

This award-winning coffee (Cezve/Ibrik World Champion, Cezve/Ibrik French Champion, 3rd place Coffee in Good Spirit, 4th place Barista) is the result of fermentation experiments conducted by Jhoan Vergara at Las Flores, in an agroforestry. The “thermal shock” process, followed by anaerobic fermentation, gives Chiroso an intense, lactic “candy” taste.

H3 :

H3 for heirloom (native seeds) and 3 for 3 coffees, H3 is the skilful blend of our 3 finest Ethiopian forest coffees for a unique, round, fruity and spicy cup. Best Expresso Blend 2015 - Comité Français du Café.

Tasting note

This Terres de Café gift set includes 2 bags of coffee beans or ground coffee (150g and 250g):

Las Flores Chirso - 88+ :

Nose: notes of strawberry and tropical fruit.

On the palate: the body is silky and syrupy, the sweetness reminiscent of sour candy with notes of strawberry, kiwi and mango. The finish is long, fresh and features hints of cherry.

H3 - Blend :

Nose: an intense, thick crema exhales notes of cocoa and frangipane.

On the palate: the attack is supple, the body extremely velvety. The spicy character of semi-wild mochas, underpinned by fine acidity, is intoxicatingly delicious. A long, lingering, gourmet finish. A great espresso, classic and distinguished.
