Ipanema D.O.T. Espresso

The "D.O.T." in this espresso stands for Dried On Tree, a natural process that allows ripe coffee cherries to dry slowly on the branch before harvest. It’s a method that brings a rounded sweetness and soft, approachable texture to the cup. Grown by Ipanema Gourmet at Fazenda Rio Verde in Brazil’s Serra de Mantiqueira region, this Yellow Bourbon lot is cultivated between 1,157–1,200 masl and dried in the warm Brazilian sun: The result is an espresso that leans toward comfort over intensity. 

Expect a smooth, gently textured shot with a lingering sweetness. Milk chocolate and roasted hazelnut notes come through clearly, supported by a mellow structure that’s ripe for the drinking and easy to love.
