#GETITBREWED 042

Happy Friday Folks 🙌🏻 Today’s coffee review makes me want to jump on a plane and head back to Vienna ☹️ Bloody loved that city. The coffee is a Washed Nicaraguan coffee from those beautiful people over at @jonasreindlcoffeeroasters . The founder Philip Feyer has journeyed to see Nicaragua for himself and to learn from the farmers first-hand. The producer Ulrich Salamun, an Austrian operating several coffee farms in Nicaragua, is a welcoming host. He has devoted himself to sustainable farming and Direct-Trade with partners willing to pay a premium for quality. He has made long-term investments in regional coffee culture, development of school projects, counselling for other farmers and more. They are very proud of this coffee and its transparent supply

chain.

Finca Los Alpes is a coffee farm located in the Cerro Kilambé natural reserve in the district of Jinotega in Nicaragua. The untouched cloud forest surrounding it is 1800 metres above sea-level and offers the ideal terroir for coffee cultivation. The Caturra and Tipica varieties grow in the shade of the jungle and their taste benefits from the enormous bio-diversity of the area as well as the altitude. All cherries are picked by hand, only when they are ripe. After the fully-washed processing the coffee seeds are transported to the Beneficio, a coffee processing plant, on the backs of donkeys. They are the only mode of transportation that can navigate the difficult three-hour track through the jungle with such a heavy load.

This coffee was super Milky in body with a fantastic caramel like sweetness 😋 There was the pleasant Hint of fruitiness at the end of each sip that had a citric like acidity which reminded me of Oranges. I always love it when the coffee cools down as it always develops and changes in my opinion, in this case the cup becomes sweeter and more Chocolate Mousse like which I loved 🙌🏻 ❤️ T H E S C O R E 🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖 9/10
