BLUEBERRIES, CAMPBELL GRAPES, CACAO NIBS, LAVENDER
From this coffee grown in the distant land of Ethiopia, you can distinctly sense the aroma of Campbell grapes, the most common grape variety in Korea. Behind the smooth, rich sip, you can detect the luscious fruit scent of blueberries and the fragrance of purple flowers reminiscent of lavender. The heavy sweetness and the distinctive aroma of the natural processing method bring to mind well-roasted cacao nibs. When enjoyed warm, it evokes the taste of honey or maple syrup. It is a truly high-quality Ethiopian natural coffee.
If you enjoy it as iced drip coffee, you can savor a sweet yet refreshing taste, much like blueberry-flavored black tea. If you want to make your holiday a little more special, I recommend pairing it with a Korean melon salad. The crisp and sweet Korean melon blends with the bright purple fruit aroma of La Resa, allowing you to start your day on a pleasant note.
Last January, our Bean Brothers team visited a company called Eftar, which owns the Laresa Washing Station. I remember giving them gifts such as notebooks, pens, and Post-it notes upon hearing the news that they had established a school. The coffees they let us taste were all excellent, and I am delighted to introduce Laresa's coffee once again, as we have only fond memories of it.
Those who enjoyed the Ethiopia Laresa released last March have been continuously asking about whether it will be re-released. It seems to be a very welcome coffee not only for us but also for our customers. Back then, it was an anaerobic natural coffee, whereas this time it is a natural coffee; even though the processing method is different, the impression of the purple hue I felt back then still connects.

What is the best consumed date for coffee beans? Are your coffee beans freshly-roasted?
We recommend 7-21 days after the initial roasting date to allow for degassing to take place, allowing the flavour of the coffee compounds to be properly extracted. Within the first seven days, roasted coffee beans are still releasing carbon dioxide and degassing. If not degassed properly, it will hinder the extraction of ground coffee particles during the brewing process.
What are the differences between Single Origins and Blends?
Single origin beans are harvested from a single producer, crop, or region, usually delivering a taste profile that is unique to its origins. Blends are a mixture of a few single origin beans, producing a rich and expressive flavor profile.
How do I choose coffee that is suitable for me?
Find the right tasting notes. These are often identified by our barista during cupping sessions. Some coffee are more floral and fruity while some are more chocolaty and nutty. As you drink more coffee, you will figure out which notes you would like the most.
