    Fancy Pants Coffee Club Month 7- Ethiopia Chelbesa

    Fancy Pants Coffee Club is here! Expect a special podcast episode every month for the Fancy Pants subscription. Aaron, Evan, and Annisa dive deep into where each coffee comes from, how Evan roasted it, and the best ways to brew it up. This natural Ethiopia sourced from Royal Coffee tastes like jasmine tea, pomegranate, and red grape. Ethiopian coffee is often seen as the "star" origin of specialty coffee... at least it is when you first start drinking specialty coffee. It tends to boasts notes of blueberry, strawberry, and all other berries! This specific coffee is sourced from METAD Agricultural Development PLC- it is a third generation family owned business with a wild history "that began after World War II when the Ethiopian Emperor awarded Muluemebet Emiru, the first African female pilot and family matriarch, with land in the Guji and Sidama zones that has become the Hambela Coffee Estate".

    Fancy Pants Coffee Club is here! Expect a special podcast episode every month for the Fancy Pants subscription. Aaron, Evan, and Annisa dive deep into where each coffee comes from, how Evan roasted it, and the best ways to brew it up. The Centroamericano variety we've become very familiar with over the past 5 years, but this is the first time tasting it as an anaerobic natural. Prepare yourself for an intense, syrupy, fruit cordial-like cup profile this upcoming month. This tropically delicious cup comes from our friends at Aquiares Estate! We've been working with them for quite some time and are stoked to offer this as apart of our Fancy Pants Coffee Club! Expect a tropical cup with tasting notes of brandy, guava, m & m candy, grapefruit, with a little bit of a Merlot finish... we know, we REAL fancy!  If you haven't heard of our club, be sure to check out our website at roasthousecoffee.com for more info!

    Fancy Pants Coffee Club Month 5- Good Food Award Finalist Colombia Honey Geisha

    Fancy Pants Coffee Club is here! Expect a special podcast episode every month for the Fancy Pants subscription. Aaron, Evan, and Annisa dive deep into where each coffee comes from, how Evan roasted it, and the best ways to brew it up. What an honor to represent 4 years of sourcing coffee from La Pradera and win with this beautiful honey processed Geisha variety and place as a 2023 Good Food Awards Finalist. Our favorite note from the judges was, “It felt like a hug.” This is not one to miss! Oscar Daza produced this honey processed Geisha variety in Santander, Colombia between 1700-1900 meters. Cherries were manually harvested before being washed and sorted to select only fully ripe fruit with sugar content above 18 degrees Brix. The cherries were then fermented in GrainPro bags for 24 hours before being pulped. The pulped coffee is then sealed into plastic tanks and fermented in a controlled anaerobic environment for 36 hours. The coffee is then pre-dried for 20 hours before being dried to 11% humidity on raised beds.

    Fancy Pants Coffee Club Month 4- Peru Huaynapata & Peru Lucmabamba

    Fancy Pants Coffee Club is here! Expect a special podcast episode every month for the Fancy Pants subscription. Aaron, Evan, and Annisa dive deep into where each coffee comes from, how Evan roasted it, and the best ways to brew it up. January's release comes with 2 bags of coffee from Southern Peru. Our core relationship coffees come from Rutas del Inca in Northern Peru with a purple fruitiness and milk chocolate cup profile. This month's Fancy Pants will introduce you to what Cusco has to offer. Huaynapata and Lucmabamba are wildly different, ranging from a very sweet and almond pastry-like cup while the other tastes like fresh peach and lemon-lime soda. We hope you are enjoying these two wonderful coffees. If you are not signed up for this club, check out our website @ roasthousecoffee.com!

    Fancy Pants Coffee Club Month 3- Colombia Mokka

    Fancy Pants Coffee Club is here! Expect a special podcast episode every month for the Fancy Pants subscription. Aaron, Evan, and Annisa dive deep into where each coffee comes from, how Evan roasted it, and the best ways to brew it up. December's coffee comes from our friends at Hacienda La Pradera, a family owned and operated organic farm in Aratoca, Colombia. 4 generations and counting directly involved in the production, processing and export of truly magnificent organic, specialty coffee. One of the most rare and difficult coffees to roast is the Mokka variety. The window of ripeness is so tight that harvest occurs often during the rain. The cherries are handpicked at their optimal point of ripeness at 20 degrees Brix (a tool to measure sugar content within the fruit).  From there the coffee is then washed before being fermented for 120 hours in a temperature and pH controlled anaerobic environment. The fermented cherries were then dried on raised beds for up to 22 days to reach 10.8–11% humidity. Not signed up for Fancy Pants? Visit our website at roasthousecoffee.com!
