Cold Brew Bold Profile | Medium-dark roast
Tasting Notes: Caramel, Malt, Dark Chocolate
IT ALL STARTS AT THE COFFEE FARM
This coffee was grown in the communities of Tablón de Goméz and Buesaco in Nariño. Our importer partner Caravela collected crops from smallholder farmers in northern Nariño with the end goal of building a coffee with dense, sweet flavors, and confection-like aromas.
Caravela has an office in the nearby town of Los Rosales, where they tasted each coffee and decided which ones would get blended to make this lot.

HOW DID WE ROAST THIS COFFEE?
This coffee is being roasted by Ian T. from 31st January to 24th February in Long Island City, Queens. We typically use the Loring Kestrel roaster for this profile. We have strict guidelines for each of the coffee profiles, and this roast has to pass the development time ratio test as measured in real-time by the roasting software, Cropster. Once it does, it is approved for production.
QUALITY CONTROL
We perform Quality Control via a process of coffee tasting called cupping on all of our production roasts twice a week at our facility in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Cupping is attended by Q-certified cupper Ian T., roaster Dave H.and founder Suyog M. All coffees are evaluated on a scoring scale of 0 to 3.
- 3.0 = exceptional roast - exceeds expectations
- 2.5 = on par with profile - matches expectations
- 2.0 = good roast, but 1 or 2 elements could be improved - needs improvement
- 1.5 or lower = failed - do not ship
