Sweetshop

Sweetshop is another seasonal espresso blend by our friends at Square Mile but this one is a little different.

Sure, you will see new components frequently switching in-and-out as they become available - changing the profile ever so slightly - but you can always trust this blend to be a celebration of big, syrupy, fruit-bomb coffees.

And this edition of Sweetshop is ALL RWANDAN!

Rwandan season is always exciting. Here in the US we see Rwandan coffees trickle in as containers arrive at their destinations usually somewhere towards the very end of the year and leading into Jan/Feb. This Sweetshop showcases two lots from the same Washing Station in Nyamasheke - Gatare.

Gatare lot 657 is the current base of Sweetshop taking up 2/3 of the cup with deep, caramel sweetness and a round, creamy texture.

Gatare 626 adds the top notes of tropical fruit and brighter, red berries.

Together this is an unapologetic expression of Rwandan naturals and if you brew espresso at home and you're tired of the same boring shots it might be time to pick up a bag of the good stuff.
