Brazil Rafael Ribeiro Vinhal 027 – A Tropical Escape in Every Cup ☀️ Aroma: The moment you open the bag, you’re greeted with a wave of toasted coconut, sun-ripened papaya, and juicy pineapple—like stepping onto a breezy Caribbean dock with a fresh-cut fruit platter waiting. 🍹 Flavour: The first sip is pure vacation in a cup—creamy Piña Colada (coconut swirls, pineapple brightness) melting into a smooth, velvety dark chocolate undertone. It’s lush, exotic, and impossibly refreshing. 🍑 Finish: Just when you think it can’t get better, the aftertaste lingers like a sunset—ripe peach sweetness kissed by a whisper of warm nutmeg. You’ll catch yourself savoring it long after the cup’s empty. ✨ Why This Lot Stands Out: Grown at 980m in Cerrado Mineiro, this Red Catuai undergoes a sophisticated double-fermentation wash (aerobic + anaerobic) with thermal shock—a modern process that heightens its tropical brilliance without losing balance. Think of it as the lovechild of a beachside cocktail and a specialty chocolate bar. 🏆 Perfect For: For black coffee purists who crave adventure (no milk needed—it’s already naturally creamy). Home baristas wanting to impress (this is next-level single-origin). ☕ Brew It Right: Try as a filter or espresso to highlight its juicy layers. Warning: May induce spontaneous daydreams of hammocks and ocean views.
