KENDAL, United Kingdom – John Farrer & Co of Kendal, the UK’s oldest coffee roastery, has launched a new addition to its ‘Signature’ speciality coffee collection, which will be available from the 01st of November. Farrer’s ‘Signature’ speciality coffee collection complements the company’s core range, adding carefully selected small-batch seasonal single-origin offerings from sustainable and responsible farms around the world.
The ‘ Signature’ collection celebrates the very best coffee grown by small-scale dedicated farmers who share Farrer’s passion for what they create. Every coffee selected has been painstakingly handpicked and selected by Farrer’s roadsters to provide their customers with access to premium coffees from among the most sought-after coffee crops produced by small single-estate plantations.
The latest addition being added to the range is:
Burundi Kibingo Natural is produced by Kibingo Washing Station in northern Burundi and is used by 3,515 locally registered coffee growers who are spread across 18 hills in the region. Alongside processing coffee, the washing station also acts as a support hub for the farmers associated with it. This single-origin coffee is bursting with flavours of dried cherry and raspberry, with hints of strawberry, citrus and apple. It has a balanced acidity and a decadent sweetness reminiscent of chocolate cake.
Burundi Kibingo Natural is priced at £12.99 per 250g bag (RRP).
Each Farrer’s Signature coffee is available as a whole bean or pre-ground, packed in a resealable bag, and is available to purchase through Farrer’s website for a limited time only. To place an order visit: http://farrerscoffee.co.uk
Che Oxenham, Farrer’s Head Roaster commented: ‘‘Burundi Kibingo scores extremely highly with a coffee cupping score of 84.5. I’ve specially selected this particular coffee because of its distinctive and unique flavour profile. Which contains flavours of dried cherry and raspberry, with hints of strawberry, citrus and apple, as well as a balanced acidity and a decadent sweetness reminiscent of chocolate cake”.
Che Oxehnham continues: “Each coffee I select is produced by a small-scale producer, who like us, are proud of what they create. Each farmer has an interesting back story, they support their local communities and produce their coffees sustainability and responsibly, which is hugely important to us. I hope you enjoy Kibingo and I’m look forward to selecting our next batch of single-origin coffees for you to try in the coming months.’’
