In the world of specialty coffee , many are looking for a cup that breaks the daily routine and offers a distinct and different flavor. If you're a fan of black coffee with a distinctly fruity character, then the "Brazil Vimto" from Drip On is one of the must-haves in your coffee corner.
In this article, we will learn about the details of this unique Brazilian crop, and why it is an excellent choice for filter and distillation beverages.
What makes Brazil's Vimto crop so special?
This coffee comes from Brazilian plantations situated between 1040 and 1200 meters above sea level, an altitude that contributes to the density of the coffee bean and the formation of its natural sugars. But the real secret behind the excellence of this crop lies in its processing and its unique characteristics.
- Clear fruity notes: Once the cup is prepared, you will notice the cranberry and cherry flavors emerging clearly.
- A balanced texture and a comfortable finish: The experience is not limited to fruity notes, but the cup ends with a velvety texture that carries the character of black tea and cocoa, making it a balanced cup suitable for daily enjoyment.
What is enhanced anaerobic therapy?
The secret ingredient in this crop is "enhanced anaerobic processing." In the coffee world, this process means fermenting coffee cherries in a completely oxygen-free environment. What's the benefit? This method stimulates beneficial bacteria and encourages fruit sugars to penetrate deeply into the coffee bean, resulting in an intense enhancement of fruity flavors (such as raspberry and cherry) that cannot be achieved with traditional processing methods (washed or dried).
The best way to prepare Brazil Vimto
For the best extraction and highlighting of fruity notes, at Drip On we recommend preparing this crop using distillation and filter equipment (such as V60 or Chemex).
Quick preparation tip:
- Use moderate water temperature (between 89 and 91 degrees Celsius) to avoid burning the delicate fruity flavors.
- Use a medium-coarse grind to allow the water to flow smoothly and to highlight the sweetness of the crop.
Summary
If you are looking for new flavors in your cup of coffee, Brazil's Vimto offers you an exceptional experience that combines the sweetness of fruit with the depth of cocoa and black tea.
Due to the delicate nature of the processing, this crop is available in limited quantities.
