So I hopped on my bike, and skirted over to the market for what is sure to be one of the best roasters around with 2 world champions and a world cupping champion on board. However, my being a little late getting over there I got the last shot left which wasn't the most brilliant shot the guys had pulled (as it had sat for a few minutes...), it was still quite delicious and I can't wait to try it again (in a cap too!).
I was there in perfect time for the second batch of coffee to arrive in the form of more 'spro, and more origins. Of course we pulled the Los Luchadores (the warriors) Pacamara single origin 'spro. One of the more interesting shots I have tried. While it's fresh on my mind, I definitely got that olive savoury flavour they put on the bag balanced out with a touch of - in my humble palate - buttery, caramel-like sweetness. In a cappuccino it was almost like a sweet and creamy roasted veg soup. I just couldn't get past that olive taste though. Perhaps because I'm not an olive fan in real life I'm not so sure how I feel about it coming through in my coffee. This coffee definitely impressed me though with a great balance between that salty, savoury balanced sweetness.
Needless to say, I can't wait to try their other offerings. Trying coffee like this just gets me excited for coffee all over again!
Plus, don't you just love their bag design?
