Check out our newest Parisian roasters release! Both of these roasters are known for their interesting sourcing, great branding and consistent roasting. Used to work at a cafe that regularly carried them and they were one of our consistent favorites!
Roast Profile: I'd call their roast profile a solid light roast. On the lighter end of a Nordic light profile. Their coffees are generally very soluble and easy to extract. They roast on a Loring.
NOTE: All of the People Possession coffees are packaged in a can and will come with the added on lid to seal them!
Here's what we have for the release!
1. People Possession - Aricha Anaerobic Natural - Gedeo, Ethiopia - 200g
I chose this coffee because I like PP's roast of anaerobic natural Ethiopians. They tend to present their flavors nicely without coming off overly fermenty. If you like funkier coffees, with strong fruity notes, give this one a go! 4/5 on the funk meter
Tasting Notes: Pineapple, Dried Mango, White Grape, Pomelo
2. People Possession - Los Naranjos Anaerobic Washed SL28 - Sonsonate, El Salvador - 200g
I chose this coffee because I love SL28s grown in Latin America. Usually had a vibrant acidity that complements the "typical" notes from these origins. 2.5/5 on the funk meter
Tasting Notes: Orange marmalade, passionfruit, cola
3. People Possession - Gesha Village Surma 24/114 Natural Gesha - Bench Maji, Ethiopia - 100g
I chose this coffee as a cleaner, and more high end offering from PP. GV is a great producer and I'm always interested in trying coffee from them. Their naturals are the bet representation of their profiles. This is the first lot we've brought on from their Surma plot, so I'm excited to compare it with the other lots we've brought on from them. 0.5/5 funk
Tasting Notes: Orange zest, cola, raspberry jam, white tea
4. People Possession - Los Nogales Extended Washed Typica - Huila, Colombia - 200g
I this this coffee because, while I don't always go for extended washed coffees, Los Nogales does a good job with them. If you like El Divisio's coffees, this will be a coffee you'll like. Expect big punchy flavors. 4/5 funk
Tasting Notes: Fresh Strawberry, Tiramisu, Melon & Tropical Juice
5. Kawa - Alaska del Sur Washed Mejorado - Loja, Ecuador - 200g
"The delicate fruity sweetness of Mirabelle plum intertwines with the soothing floral aromas of chamomile, while the full-bodied richness of black tea provides elegant depth. A refined and balanced cup, combining sweetness and character."
I chose this coffee because I love Alaska del Sur and am always down to try different roasts of their green. I also brought in this lot from Big Sur and am excited to compare them. If you like Mejorados, this is definitely the coffee for you. Really great example that can be harder to find in the US
Tasting Notes: Mirabelle Plum, Chamomile, Black Tea
6. Kawa - Pino de Ora Natural Gesha (CoE #4) - Santa Barbara, Honduras - 100g
"This exceptional coffee, awarded the Honduran Cup of Excellence, offers a floral and elegant aromatic profile. From the first sip, delicate aromas of jasmine and honeysuckle unfold, reminiscent of a spring bouquet. On the palate, notes of clementine bring a touch of sweet and sunny acidity, while nuances of honey add a delicious roundness."
I chose this coffee because it can be hard to find good roasts of CoE lots. This is a good choice if you want to try a good roast of a CoE coffee, or just like clean naturals from Honduras.
Tasting Notes: Jasmine, Clementine, Honey, Honeysuckle
