Colombia Tabi Washed

This is an offering from a small estate in the Huila region called El Tesoro "The Treasure" in the Narino region. The coffee was planted at 5100 foot altitude and is a reasonably new Colombian variety called Tabi.

This is our first Tabi, and I had heard such great things about it that my expectations may have been too high. For sure, it's great coffee, but it's still recognizable as a Colombian profile and doesn't push the boundaries. We are getting a molasses taste, slight dried fruit, and nutty acidity. No bitterness. Good body. 

My favorite roast of this is just at verge of 2nd cracks. We've just been drinking it as coffee, but it seems to work nicely in espresso as well. The sweetness carries through in the espresso and makes a nice shot. You can also roast it dark (45 seconds of 2nd cracks) to get a nice french roast.
