Origin

The Raspberry Eclipse Light Espresso Coffee Blend is crafted from a carefully selected combination of Central American and African beans. Central American regions are known for their rich volcanic soil and consistent climate, which contribute to the beans’ natural sweetness and well-balanced acidity. African regions, particularly in East Africa, are celebrated for their fruity and bright coffee profiles. Together, these beans create a harmonious blend that highlights the best of both regions—smoothness from Central America and fruity complexity from Africa. Local farmers focus on sustainable and traditional growing practices, ensuring that each cup of Raspberry Eclipse carries the vibrant spirit of its origins.

Processing Method

This blend uses a mix of dry-processed beans from Central America and Africa, a method that enhances the coffee’s fruity and sweet characteristics. Dry processing, also known as the natural method, involves drying the cherries with the fruit still intact, allowing the beans to absorb natural sugars. This technique results in a deeper, more concentrated flavor with a slightly heavier body. The drying process on raised beds ensures even drying and reduces the risk of defects, preserving the beans’ bright and tart raspberry notes while maintaining their smooth texture.

Flavor Profile

Raspberry Eclipse Light Espresso Coffee Blend is a standout choice for those who appreciate a vibrant and complex cup. The light roast preserves the beans’ inherent sweetness, with a chocolate-dipped body giving way to hints of hazelnut and toffee. These warm notes are complemented by a tart raspberry jam-like finish, offering a refreshing burst of fruitiness. The medium body and smooth texture make it a versatile choice for both straight shots and milk-based beverages, with the fruity elements adding a delightful twist to traditional espresso.

Brewing Recommendations

To fully appreciate the bright and fruity notes of Raspberry Eclipse, opt for brewing methods that highlight clarity and sweetness. A pour-over using a Chemex or V60 will bring out the raspberry and citrus undertones, while an espresso machine will capture the blend’s smooth chocolatey body. For a creamy texture, try using a French press to enhance the hazelnut and toffee notes. Use freshly ground beans and filtered water heated to 195–205°F to ensure optimal extraction. Adjust the grind size for your preferred method to bring out the best in this unique espresso blend.
