Kafferäven Per Nordby – Yemerson

I’m a huge fan of Kafferäven Per Norby, I always know that whatever I’ll buy it will be of the highest quality. Today I’m reviewing a coffee from Costa Rica with the lovely process honey! Yemerson!!!

It was very juicy, I could almost find notes from ripe juicy fruits. I’ve also written down candid fruits and butterscotch, which is reasonable since it tastes a lot of caramel with the brewed cup I’m holding next to me. Let’s review what they wrote as their description:

“Sweet and balanced, caramel, yellow pear”

First I’ll cup the coffee which means that I’ll try to find different flavors in the coffee. Just to give you as a reader a hint of understanding of what I go through. I’ll also write how to do a cupping. You can read that below:

When I do a cupping I do the following:

1) Grind 11 g coffee in a medium-coarse grind, I’ll remember the coffee’s fragrances now when it is dry to compare with the let grounds later.
2) Pour 180 g of water at a temperature of 93 degrees Celsius.
3) Let it sit for 4 minutes.
4) Stir 3 times and try to find as many scents.
5) Remove all foam that’s formed on the top.
6) Wait for 6 minutes so the coffee cools down and to let the coffee grounds fall down to the bottom, then I’ll take my first slurp with a deep spoon. The idea is that you will spray the coffee inside your mouth. That way you will be able to easily recognize the tones contained in the coffee.
7) Wait for 6 minutes and do the same procedure, the reason behind step 7 is that it’s the most optimal time for tasting coffee. If the coffee is still good after 12-15 minutes, then it is a high-quality coffee!

Cupping notes:
Juicy, ripe fruit with mellow hints of candied fruit. A lot of butterscotch.

Review of Yemerson:
A very sweet and juicy coffee. At certain recipes, it tastes like it has acidity, a light light note of it. But if you change the recipe a bit, to the sweeter side it will go away! It’s something preferable for this kind of coffee, at least in my opinion.

Kafferäven delivers again with Yemerson. You always get what you pay for, and it’s high-quality coffee beans with a high-quality roast technique. Really good!
