Latin America. Batch roasting since 1971. Tasting Notes: Lively, balanced. Flavor Intensity: Medium. The flavor of Latin American coffees. In Latin America, hundreds of years of coffee tradition have passed along the ritual of washing coffee beans free of their sticky, protective honey. This washing process imprints all of the coffee grown there with a crisp flavor and palate-cleansing acidity. When we opened our first store in Seattle's Pike Place Market, we wanted a House Blend that captured the signature expression of our roasting style - glistening, dark chestnut beans loaded with flavor. This decaffeinated version has the same wonderful balanced of body, crisp acidity, nut and cocoa notes, and roasty sweetness as our regular House. Enjoy With: A slice of banana nut bread and an overstuffed chair.
