Why This Coffee Tastes This Way
The Liliana Genbuel variety, naturally processed in Cauca's mountainous terrain, yields a distinctly aromatic cup. 1718 describes jasmine, hibiscus, ripe peach, red cherry, citrus, honey and tropical fruit—a profile shaped by the combination of variety, terroir, process and elevation. Its bright, refined acidity and silky body make it a discovery-led coffee, especially when brewed as filter and tasted across different serving temperatures.
Recommended Brewing
-
V60: A clean pour-over format makes it easier to follow the floral, peach and citrus layers.
-
Chemex: The cleaner filter can emphasize clarity and the coffee's refined structure.
-
AeroPress: Useful when you want a concentrated but still aromatic interpretation.
-
Espresso: Works as an exploratory espresso when carefully dialed, but filter remains the easier route for its floral complexity.
1718 Brewing Tip: Try tasting this coffee again as it cools; you may notice different floral or fruit details at lower serving temperatures.
