Blending
COYO
procures both single-origin coffees and regional blends from around the world. Single-origin
coffees shows what is possible in individual coffees. Blends weave together
coffees from different origins to create a taste tapestry for your tongue. Some
coffees are purchased solely for blending while others are purchased as
single-origin offerings.
Single-Origin
Coffees
An assortment of
distinctive flavor characteristics of specific, individual coffees from 10 to 15
different countries we offered.
The
term "varietal"
is often misused. Arabica
is one species within the genus of coffee (robusta
is another species). Each species has
varieties ranked underneath it, and there are many varieties of arabica coffee trees.
While "varietal" is a botanical
term, "single-origin" is a geographical term, and the most accurate
way to describe coffees from a specific country.
As green coffee beans
are often grown by multiple farmers and then mixed at their place of origin, a
"single-origin" coffee from a specific geographical area may have
coffee beans from multiple varieties of arabica plants.
An example of a true
varietal coffee is Brazil Ipanema Bourbon,. The "Bourbon" part of its
name refers to its varietal status. All of the beans come from unmixed,
old-stock Bourbon plants, which are prized for their elegant flavor. "Ipanema"
refers to the actual farm where it is grown, thus this coffee, is both a
single-origin and a varietal coffee.
COYO
Blends In addition to
great single-origin coffees, our core lineup also includes blends of different
single-origin coffees. The blends as a group make up a significant percentage of
our whole bean coffee lineup, and each is as special in its own way as the most
exotic single-origin coffee. There are many reasons to blend coffee. At COYO, we
seek to showcase the signature style of a particular growing region (as in House
Blend or Gazebo Blend®) or to combine various qualities found in different
regions into a harmonious, balanced whole. Whatever the case, each COTO blend
offers a cup of coffee that no single-origin coffee can duplicate.
Dark
Roast Blends We also
offer three dark roast blends: Espresso Roast, Italian Roast, and French. These
blends vary both in constituent coffees and roast intonation. Espresso Roast is
the foundation of almost beverage business. Italian Roast and French Roast are
among our more popular coffees.
