Bells Espresso

Bells is our classic blend, ready to impress your coffee snob mates but won’t terrify your grandma. Consistent and delicious through any brew method and a fantastic espresso. Farmhouse, our importing partner, works very closely with around 200 small-hold farmers in Sul de Minas, Brazil, where the hot and humid climate is perfect for growing coffee. The aim is to improve the quality of the green beans so the farmers can access the specialty coffee markets around the world and therefore get paid better for their beans. This particlar lot is from the farm Fazenda Quilombo and produced by Flavio Jose Spineli. He’s a fourth generation coffee farmer and has been learning from his family from a young age. Flavio has also been the director at the local co-operative for eight years, so he has had a critical role in coffee development in the region. Peña Roja is located in the Huehuetenango muncipality of the western highlands of Guatemala, running up to the border of Mexico. Coffee on the Cooperativa Agricola Integral Peña Roja‘s 81 smallholders’ farms is picked by hand, washed, and dried under the sun on patios on the roofs of houses perching the slopes and hillsides. Expect tasting notes of chocolate cookie, caramel, and almond brittle. Recommended brew methods: Espresso, cafetiere, Aeropress, stovetop 2-star Great Taste 2020 winner: "A really gorgeous nutty aroma, with hints of caramel and vanilla to create a really rich nose, and very inviting cup. The flavour is rich and balanced, with good acidity, more of the nutty character and some sweetness to add body. The finish is balanced and lingers, with lots of lovely chocolatey notes and a touch of bitterness. Really lovely blend and a perfect roast profile." Details: 65% Farmhouse
