The cup it is served in

Cupping bowl, glazed stoneware

Salon standard, 200 ml, brass ring at the base

Volume 200 ml

The same bowl for all four cups of the flight, so nothing but the coffee changes between them.

The farm

Yeimy Ospina began sealed fermentation in 2019 with two tanks and a thermometer she checked at midnight. The temperature log for this lot is pinned behind the bar; ask and we will show you.

It is the most obviously fruity coffee we pour, which is why it comes last in the flight. Anything after it tastes quiet.
