Tim's notes:
This is the second year in a row that the washed Pacamara coffee from Los Pirineos has been one of the stand-out coffees of the year for us. With a complex winey ripe red fruit flavour, notes of tropical fruits, a clean finish and structured acidity, it is a great example of how complex a washed Pacamara can be. There is a good reason why Los Pirineos has won so many awards for their Pacamara coffees.
Often times you hear that Pacamara coffees can be a bit herbal or oniony in flavour, and I don’t disagree, but this coffee has none of those off-flavours. There are so many versions of Pacamara being planted as the cultivar is not uniform, probably because it was released before it was stabilised as a new hybrid cultivar. Maybe that is why there are so many different flavour profiles of this cultivar as well. Still, the Pacamara coffees from Los Pirineos always taste good and rarely have any of those herbaceous flavours. I believe this is because Los Pirineos was in fact one of the farms involved in the development of the cultivar and were able to select a good line for the farm. Today Diego produces high quality certified Pacamara seeds that he also sells to other farmers.
Fortunately this lot was big enough to be able to offer it as one of our selected “Christmas Edition” coffees this year. I don’t really have any particular criteria for selecting Christmas edition coffees other than that the coffee itself needs to be among the best we have in stock. A perfect coffee for the holidays and also a nice gift to someone who loves coffee.
