Four Corners Blend Coffee
Four Corners Blend Coffee
A complex four-origin blend of Guatemala, Colombia, Uganda and East Timor with dark chocolate, red fruit, caramel and warming spice.
Four Corners Blend
Four Corners Blend brings together Guatemala, Colombia, Uganda and East Timor in a medium roast built around depth, sweetness and complexity. Dark chocolate and caramel establish the foundation, while red fruit, citrus zest, blackcurrant and raisin add layers of fruit character.
Indonesian components contribute earthy spice, cedar and clove, giving the blend additional warmth and depth. Its medium-to-full body and velvety, creamy texture make it equally suited to black coffee, espresso and milk-based drinks.
The result is a layered and satisfying blend with bright citrus structure, rich chocolate sweetness and a long, balanced finish.
Cupping Notes:
Aroma
Rich dark chocolate and caramel sweetness lead the aroma, accompanied by subtle floral notes and a light earthy undertone that adds depth.
Acidity
Bright citrus-driven acidity brings vibrancy and structure to the cup, remaining balanced without overwhelming the richer flavour profile.
Body
Medium to full-bodied with a smooth, velvety mouthfeel and creamy, rounded texture that carries the coffee’s layered character.
Flavour
Dark chocolate and caramel establish the foundation, followed by red fruit and citrus zest. Blackcurrant and raisin add depth, while earthy spice, cedar and clove from the Indonesian components introduce warmth and complexity.
Finish
Long and satisfying, with lingering cocoa, toasted nuts and soft spice leading into a clean, balanced aftertaste.
