Brazil Ipanema Premier Cru Gold Edition

This is an extremely special coffee from a wonderful, world-renowned estate. Those wine lovers will spot the Grand Cru reference & the Premier Cru range is exactly that - a 'best of the best' coffee with beautiful wine-like character. Incredible given that it is a fully washed coffee. Think boozy fruit, big body & very sweet marzipan finish. Truly stunning coffee.

Beginning in 2018, Ipanema began their ‘Premier Cru’ range: a selection of very small batch, handcrafted lots from the highest altitudes of the Estate’s oldest farm, Rio Verde. This range of Premier Cru coffees is packed in cutting edge nitrogen-flushed vacuum-packed 20kg cartons. The method of nitrogen flushing, common with roasted coffee, stabilises the product by removing all traces of oxygen. Taking such care with green coffee is practically unheard of, even in specialty. The method speaks to the exceptional quality of these lots, which push the boundaries of what specialty coffee in Brazil can offer.

We're really raving to anyone who will listen about how amazing this coffee is - don't get put off by the price - for the best of the best, it's well worth it. Ipanema are extremely selective as to who gets to sell this coffee, and we feel very lucky & proud to be one of the first Roasters selected.
