You can tell a lot about a coffee if you know where it’s from. Every bean has a distinctive flavor that comes from its land of origin. Just like with wine, it’s the goût de terroir—“the taste of the place.”
Coffees from Latin America are celebrated for their great balance, medium body and clean finish. They typically display flavors of nuts, cocoa and soft spice in the cup. These consistent flavors are a result of the “washed” processing methods used by farms throughout the region. Most of the world’s coffee comes from here.
