Myanmar
Direct trade small lots from South Asia Myanmar! Not often do we see stellar offerings from Myanmar, a great addition to our list.
This coffee comes from the Emerald Peacock Co-Op in the Shan state bordering China, which is one of the poorest regions in the world. The Co-Op is run by extended family from a minority group that originally farmed poppy.
Torch connected with the Emerald Peacock Estate family through a friendship forged between one of Torch’s founder’s daughters, and a girl who was from the family of the farmers. After the connection was made, Torch was able to support this region by investing in coffee trade so the family could transition from poppy to coffee. Torch has been able to nurture this relationship by offering coffee processing training and training on different farming methods.
Tasting Notes: Light roasts; citric and floral upfront, a sweet edge, thicker chocolate/spice undertones, hints of caramel with a little setup in the aftertaste. Medium roasts really mellow the cup. Smooth most would say, a bit more neutral with just a hint of the floral and spice seen at the lighter roasts.
