brazil ibiraci PB - espresso

by Eighthirty Coffee Roasters

Ibiraci is a region characterised by its higher altitude compared to the surrounding areas, featuring a flat plateau that yields excellent quality. This specific region provides a distinct flavor profile. Additionally, the notable presence of family-run farms is a highlight, fostering a transformative movement focused on improving quality, technology, and innovation. This particular lot was meticulously chosen to be part of this specialty peaberry selection. PB or peaberry is a name given to a special looking coffee bean. Peaberries are the result of a natural mutation in the coffee cherry. Usually you would find two beans in a single coffee cherry but in this case it’s a single rounded bean. Peaberry mutations occur in approximately 5% of all coffee. The beans are known for being rounder, smaller and denser, which can contribute to a more even roast. We found this coffee is a perfect fit for our single origin espresso with its round sweetness and creamy texture!
