This Peaberry comes from the Pastores mill in the heart of Antigua. It is the same version of our La Flor del Cafe, only the peaberries are sorted out. It has lively acidity and a heavy body with flavors of chocolate and caramel.

Chocolate and caramel is absolutely right! I was aiming for more of a medium roast, and was dismayed at first because I let it get to a rolling second crack on accident. But that turned out to be perfect. It feels smooth like a Kona or a Java, with very little bitterness. I did slow down the roast for the browning phase, which I think was a great choice because the roast is very sweet. The chocolate's definitely more of a milk chocolate than a dark chocolate, and the caramel verges almost on molasses. Very smooth. I will definitely get these again.

Roasted in my confection oven at 480 degrees for 10 mins . Turned a medium roast . Very nutty and just right chocolate taste with slightly sweet taste on the end . 8.5 my taste

Just fantastic. Can't believe it costs less than the regular Antigua. Don't tell CBC! Roasted in an SR800 with ext tube. Progressed a little slower than most, 1st crack occurred about 20° hotter than usual. Took to about Full City. Rested 3 days. Wonderful aroma while grinding told me this was special. Brewed in a Chemex. I test new coffees on my wife. I don't tell her it's a new one, and wait for her reaction. "Wow, is this ever good!" Yep! Certainly chocolatey and nutty. Well-balanced for sure Brighter than expected, and a little fruity on the back end, but no particular fruit. Gets even more chocolatey as it cools. Smooth, buttery mouthfeel that stays with you. Just an awesome cup of coffee.
