Dominican Org Ramirez Estate – Washed Peaberry

$8.25

Very classic good tasting Dominican coffee. Thick and creamy with low acidity and very complex darker tones. A nice islandy acidity pokes through and balances the cup very nicely right at the 2nd crack. Definitely one for dark roast fans looking for something a bit more exotic. Chocolate, tobacco earthiness, molasses and smoky – it is one complex tasting coffee.

Description

A very cool single estate coffee from Cafe Kreyol (our Haitian Co-op friends).

Cafe Kreyol goes into some of the most impoverished and troubled areas that are within prime coffee growing territory, organizes farmers, teaches how to correctly process beans, guarantees purchase of the beans at way above market prices ensuring it goes directly to the farmers and strives to really turn around some of the more troubled areas, putting people to work at well above average wages and ensuring future livelihoods.

Joey, the head of Cafe Kreyol, even strives for his US employees the above statement. He finds the hardest working individuals with great work ethics that for one reason or another have really been put down with employment and troubled times to help them recover and build a resume while also being able to help others.

One can feel really good about supporting any of Cafe Kreyol’s projects and for the most part – really tasty coffees as well.

Cafe Kreyol projects including this one are project coffees (although this is the nicest screen out of the lot), these are not a 0 defect beautiful large screen coffee. It takes around 5-7 years to really turn out a prime coffee operation and most of these are on year 2-3. Great tasting cups but keep in mind – not the worlds best screen.

In 1943, Mr. Belarminio Ramirez started a small company dedicated to the cultivation and marketing of coffee, which over the years grows into a family tradition involves three generations already. The Belarminio Ramirez Group was named in his honor.
Currently, the company owns 350 hectares of coffee production, located in the mountains of the central range between 800 and 1500 meters above sea.

Roasting Notes:
Make sure to play around with the roast on this guy, medium to as dark as you want to go is the window to play within. You can really change up the coffee from borderline dark (accentuates a bit of earthiness) to decently dark (stronger but more down the chocolate smoky realm). A couple day setup time really smooths out the tones.
