Now this is a hot coffee gift set from We Are Coffee Co. It's a trio of 227g bags of whole bean coffee, each with its own unique flavour profile.
The first bag is Ethiopian beans, which are known for their bright, fruity notes. They're lightly roasted, so they have a delicate, almost floral flavour. The second bag is Brazilian beans, which are a bit richer and more complex. They're medium roasted, so they have a nice balance of sweetness and acidity. The final bag is the Indonesian beans, which are the darkest roast of the three. They're bold and full-bodied, with notes of dark chocolate and spice.
Ethiopian Beans
Like a summer fruit salad, these beans bring a burst of juicy, tropical flavours like pineapple, mango, and strawberry jam. There's also a subtle hint of red plum, which adds an ever so slight touch of tartness.
Brazilian Beans
This is a more balanced cup, with flavours that remind me of a fruit tart! You'll taste notes of plum and cherry, along with a nutty almond flavour and a rich, dark chocolate finish.
Indonesian Beans
This is a bold, complex coffee. It has a citrusy start with grapefruit notes, followed by a jammy sweetness from the prune. As you sip, you'll notice a dark chocolate flavour and a unique tanginess from the tamarind, and my favourite of the three.
I personally prefer a darker roast, so these beans aren't quite my cup of tea, so to speak! However, if you're into fruity, lighter roasts, then you'll probably love these. It's always fun to experiment with different coffee beans, so I'd definitely recommend giving this gift set a try.
