Roast Level Profile Notes
Maui Yellow Caturra
I prefer a
Full City roast for our Maui Yellow Caturra to bring out the best profile and balance; nice and smooth at this roast level.
We are always happy to accommodate any roast level you prefer.
The notes below illustrate how changing the roast will alter the profile:
City Roast (light roast)
This roast level will liven up the profile by highlighting the spice and complexity. This is a good choice if you prefer a bright, snappy finish and want to experience pure Origin Characteristics.
Full City Roast (medium roast) - Preferred
a Full City roast will provide the 'sweet spot' for an all-around great cup. Very nice body and mouth-feel, chocolate tones are balanced by an exotic spiciness and a smooth, soft finish.
Full City (+) Roast (medium dark roast)
This roast level will bring out some darker chocolate notes, hints of red fruit, tempered acidity, and a more velvety mouth-feel and finish.
Darker Roasts
Will definitely bring the dark chocolate notes to the forefront. The darker roasts will tend to eclipse many of the origin characteristics, but it can work for those who enjoy darker roasts.
Additional Information
Maui Yellow Caturra
The coffee cherry of the Yellow Caturra is a bright yellow, when it is ripe, rather than the traditional red color, thus the name Yellow Caturra.
The well-balanced acidity is due to the Hawaiian volcanic soil where the coffee is grown at 500ft or more above sea level.
All Yellow Caturra coffee is hand-picked and naturally processed.
