The best Pacamara coffee from the Caballeros we have had so far. A sweet coffee with winey flavours of red fruits. In 2018 we won the Pacamara category in the Nordic Roaster Competition with the Pacamara coffee from the Caballeros and it helped us win the overall competition. I believe it was because of the exceptional sweetness that this coffee displays along with the interesting Pacamara flavours that helped us win. Unfortunately this cultivar can be a bit inconsistent both in quality and production yield from year to year and I have to admit that the quality we had in 2018 has been a distant memory up until this year. Unlike last years harvest which was very subtle in flavours, this years Pacamara from Marysabel and Moises is for sure the best we have ever tasted from them. The coffee has intense and distinct red and tropical fruit flavours and a winey acidity. No wonder it is Marysabel’s favourite cultivar as the flavours can be really complex, yet Moises is not the biggest fan, mainly due to the inconsistent mood of the plants from year to year. When coffees are this good, I personally don’t mind that the quality can be a bit up and down from year to year. After all it is a good reminder that coffee is a product of nature.
