Product Description

This Bourboncito cultivar separation from Pulcal isn't all that different than our lot from the high part of the farm Inteligente. If you tried it, you know that's a net positive! The dry fragrance shows strength in raw sugar sweetness, along with mild-mannered chocolate and walnut hints. We found roasts beyond City+ see an aromatic boost in both sweetness and cocoa bittering aspects, along with a smell of fudge sundae syrup in the steam off the wetted grounds. When hot, the brewed coffee shows a really nice candied almond note, with sugar-fortified cocoa, like Ibarra drinking chocolate laced with cinnamon. The coffee cools to some malted sweet flavors, with intimations of tea, and moderate fruited acidity in light roasts. Full City roasts bring out those bittersweet chocolate flavors, and tamp down on acidity to some extent. There's certainly a flavor of high % cacao chocolate bar in their, along with bittersweet flourless torte. Pulcal brews so well, a real crowd-pleasing coffee, that also doubles wonderfully as a single origin espresso. Full City shots produce incredibly viscous mouthfeel, dense dark chocolate flavors are accented by a spark of lemon rind, and licorice hints in the finish.
