This week finds me diving into the second bag from Klatch, the Duvier Rivera Micro-Lot. Wow - another excellent Colombian from Klatch coffee! Dare I say this one is even better than the La Esperanza, its flavor is more robust, richer and all-around extremely satisfying. The flavor profile is similar to the La Esperanza in that I get a chocolate finish, however the initial kick is less juicy and citrusy - super smooth and rich on the first sip. I am getting pretty good at this inverted aeropress style, I'm finding it to produce the best results. One tweak is to reduce the brew time down to about 60-70 seconds from the 2 minutes I had initially tried. This tip came from the Aeropress inventor himself, Alan Adler, in an interview I read on the Sprudge website. He mentions there a shorter wet time for the coffee produced a sweeter cup on the aeropress.
Highly recommend Klatch, and their fine Colombians!
Brent's rating: 9 (A High 9 at that)
