We can’t get enough of the morning brew here at the Her.ie towers so when we come across a coffee, we must try it!
From ground roasts to rich blends, we’re coffee fanatics and are always up for trying something new. Here are five great coffees to try this year:
Pónaire’s Costa Rica Blend
Looking for the perfect breakfast blend? This Costa Rica and Arabica bean coffee is blended at high altitude and shade-grown, meaning that the indigenous rainforest has been left intact. The nutrients come up through its roots and the natural mineral content of the volcanic soil are all retained. This blend is noted for its berry-like flavours and spicy aftertaste. Check out this delicious coffee here.
Bewley’s Araku India
A delightfully strong coffee with a distinctively rich taste, thanks to the warm temperate climate and tropical winds from the Bay of Bengal. Overall a well balanced coffee. According to Bewley’s: “The unique annual coffee festival, the “Gems of Araku” brings together the best coffees from over 100 small tribal farmers of Araku Valley in Andhra Pradesh, India.” Find out more about it here.
Robert Roberts Casa Havana
Casa Havana is a beautiful 100% Arabic Havana style coffee with has been blended and roasted, achieving a lovely smooth taste and a light chocolate finish. A mild fruity flavour is evident too leaving you a with a cup that’s delectably silky. It is suitable for all coffee makers – but probably best made using a filter. Check it out here.
Nespresso’s Colombian Terroirs
Colombian Terroirs is the latest brew to hit the range. The company sought out green coffee from the regions of Cauca and Santander which are particularly aromatic Arabica beans with a gloriously aroma and taste profile. The Colombian Terroirs take the concept of Pure Origin Grands Crus one step further by demonstrating the diverse taste experience which can be drawn from Arabica varieties grown in different locations. More information on the coffee here.
3fe’s Amazing Selection of Coffees
Ok so we may be cheating a bit with this one, but their brew is well-worth checking out anyway. 3fe rotate their coffees every week so you’re spoiled for choice if you’re looking for something fresh and new.
