DOMINICAN REPUBLIC Barahona AA

Escape the everyday and discover a hidden treasure from the heart of the Caribbean.

While many are familiar with coffees from South America and Africa, the Dominican Republic remains one of the specialty coffee world's best-kept secrets. We invite you to taste "Paraiso" (Paradise), an exceptional coffee from the prestigious Barahona region, an area celebrated for producing the nation's finest beans.

Grown in the cool, high-altitude mountains of the island's southwest, these beans are nurtured by the Caribbean sun and rich, fertile soil. This lot carries the "AA" grading, signifying a larger bean size, which is a hallmark of the care and meticulous sorting that takes place after harvest. This attention to detail results in a cup profile that is incredibly balanced, clean, and satisfyingly smooth.

We've roasted this coffee to honour its delicate character, creating a brew that is both comforting and sophisticated, with a gentle sweetness that makes it incredibly easy to drink.

Flavour Profile: A smooth, elegant, and perfectly poised cup.

• Tasting Notes: A beautiful harmony of creamy milk chocolate and toasted almond forms the base, with a subtle, crisp hint of red apple adding a touch of gentle brightness.
• Acidity: Soft and exceptionally low, making for a very smooth sip.
• Body: Medium, with a creamy and rounded mouthfeel.
• Process: Fully Washed – This meticulous process ensures a clean, consistent, and well-balanced flavour profile, free of any distracting notes.

Why You'll Love It: This is the perfect coffee for those looking to explore beyond the usual. Its classic, low-acidity profile makes it a dream for plunger or batch brew, creating a cup that is both rich and gentle. As an espresso, it produces a smooth, chocolatey shot that is the ideal foundation for a superb flat white.

Add a taste of paradise to your daily routine. This is your chance to savour a truly unique and delicious Caribbean coffee.
