Love Letter
This limited seasonal coffee is a combination of two fantastic lots: a natural Brazil and a cinnamon and strawberry experimental honey & co-ferment from Colombia. We’ve taken a classic, sweet and approachable single origin and blended it with one of our most unique Colombian single origin profiles. Together, these two lots merge to produce a deeply sweet, spicy and memorable cup. A love letter from us to you.

Variety
Brazil Catuai: A cross between highly productive Mundo Novo and compact Caturra, made by the Instituto Agronomico (IAC) of Sao Paulo State in Campinas, Brazil. The plant is highly productive compared to Bourbon, in part because of its small size, which allows plants to be closely spaced; it can be planted at nearly double the density. The plant’s shape makes it relatively easy apply pest and disease treatments. It is mainly characterized by great vigor and its low height; it is less compact than Caturra. It is highly susceptible to coffee leaf rust. There are yellow-fruited and red-fruited types, and have since been many selections in different countries. The cultivar was created in 1949 from a crossing of yellow Caturra and Mundo Novo, and initially called H-2077. The variety was released in Brazil 1972 after pedigree selection (selection of individual plants through successive generations) and is in wide cultivation there. In Brazil, there are multiple lines of Catuai available; some are notable for their high productivity. Colombia Caturra: Despite its high susceptibility to diseases and lower yield (20-30% fewer coffee cherries than Bourbon), this variety is renowned for its exceptional cup quality. It is characterized by a clean, complex profile with a typically sweet taste and a broad range of flavour notes.
