This week our menu will feature the coffees Intelligentsia offered at our grand reopening. We have less than a pound of each, so try them while they last!
Llano Grande, Colombia: Cup of Excellence, Fourth Place
From the Meta region in Colombia, this fourth-place winner in the Cup of Excellence Competition is nothing short of magnificent. The clarity of this coffee provides an ideal foundation for a vibrant variety of fruit notes, including green grapes, peaches, and dates. Being a balanced, medium-bodied coffee, it finishes sweet and crisp making it hard to have just one cup.
Tres Santos, Colombia - Huila Micro-Lot: El Descanso
Relaxed, just as the name suggests, this coffee finishes as elegantly as it begins. The smooth, sweet finish is preceded by gentle notes of black mission figs, dried cranberries and vanilla.
Tres Santos, Colombia - Huila Micro-Lot: El Mirador
An exceedingly elegant coffee, el Mirador presents a bouquet of jasmine and coffee blossom atop a syrupy, merlot-like body. The finish maintains its complexity with sweet licorice root and dried dates.
Tres Santos, Colombia - Huila Micro-Lot: La Piragua
Astoundingly articulate, this coffee flawlessly showcases citric lemon acidity rounded by notes of candied fruit and honey. The finish is clear and transparent and delightfully maple-like.
Notice that the “regular” Tres Santos is no longer on the menu- Intelli has sold through the Huila Lot (other than the micro lots) so we have removed it from the menu. We’ve also removed some of the blends from the brew bar menu. We’ll still have them available, just ask us.
