What's Single Origin Specialty Coffee Anyone?

Single origin specialty coffee refers to coffee that is made from beans that come from a single geographic region or estate. This type of coffee is often prized for its unique flavors and characteristics, which are influenced by factors such as the type of coffee plant, the soil in which it is grown, and the climate of the region.

One of the benefits of single origin specialty coffee is that it allows coffee drinkers to experience the distinct flavors of a specific region or growing area. For example, a single origin coffee from Guatemalan may have flavors of Apple and chocolate, while a single origin coffee from Colombia may have flavors of mango and red wine.

Specialty coffee is coffee that has been graded 80 or above on a 100-point scale by a certified coffee taster. It is characterized by a distinct flavor profile and is often grown in specific regions or microclimates. Specialty coffee is typically roasted to a medium or medium-light roast level to preserve the unique flavors of the coffee beans.
