Samurai Shoelace - Treat Selection Beloya - 10 Capsules
Specialty grade coffee in capsules, originating from Ethiopia and roasted for espresso by the Hungarian roastery, Samurai Shoelace. Each pack contains 10 capsules compatible with Nespresso® machines. A very sweet and full bodied ethiopian coffee from the Yirgachefe region. The carbonic maceration process boosts the fruitiness of this incredible coffee.Did you know that Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee? That is precisely why we love Ethiopian coffees – they possess a very distinct character, and beans from this region are famous for their floral-fruity, refreshing aroma. Beloya, coming from Yirgacheffe, one of Ethiopia's most renowned coffee-growing regions, is exactly like that: cultivated among high mountains, bursting with fresh, fruity flavors and floral aromas. It is a bit more unique, a bit wilder than coffee in general, but that is what makes it so exciting. This won't be just your ordinary morning coffee.Country of origin: EthiopiaRegion: YirgacheffeFarm: Beloya Washing StationAltitude: 1719 m a.s.l.Varietal: HeirloomProcess: Carbonic MacerationABOUT THE FARMTypical for Ethiopia, coffee does not come from (relatively) larger farms, but from many independent smallholders (where the smallest "farm" might just be two bushes at the end of a garden). Coffee produced this way is gathered at washing stations, where it is processed, graded, and sold, with farmers living in the vicinity bringing their harvests there. The washing station uses water from local rivers to process the coffee cherries (hence the name, as the washing process is common here).The Beloya washing station is located north of Chelelektu in the Kochere district, 45 km from the regional capital, Dilla. The facility, which has been operating for 20 years, features two processing plants and is currently being expanded and modernized.ABOUT THE PROCESSINGCarbonic Maceration (a technique also known from winemaking) is a relatively new process in the coffee world. During this process, only the highest quality cherries are placed into a sealed steel tank, and carbon dioxide (CO2) is then used to completely displace the oxygen.In this anaerobic environment, an intracellular fermentation process begins. Instead of external microorganisms and yeast initiating the breakdown, it is an enzymatic transformation of sugar within the fruit itself. As the cells begin to break down sugar in the absence of oxygen, various types of aromas and esters—and sometimes alcohols—are produced. This gives carbonic macerated coffees a very distinctive, almost fruit-candy-like flavor, while simultaneously preserving the classic aromatic characteristics of Ethiopian coffee.
Samurai Shoelace - Calm Thunder Decaf - 10 Capsules

Samurai Shoelace - Curiosity Series Double Rainbow - 10 Capsules
Specialty coffee in capsules, sourced from Ethiopia and roasted by the Hungarian roastery Samurai Shoelace. The package contains 10 capsules compatible with Nespresso® machines.Have you always wondered what "natural" and "washed" processing means? Try it! We've made this Ethiopian box, in which we put 5-5 pieces of both types of coffee so you can feel the difference! Can you recognize it? Can you find it? (The brown capsule is the natural, the pink one is the washed!)In the Double Rainbow box you will find two types of different processed Ethiopian coffee capsules: the brown one is natural-processed Sidamo, and the pink one is washed Andaracha. We want you to taste how different flavours the processing method gives you, so you can taste what you have always heard in a cafe as "washed" or "natural".Origin: EthiopiaRegion: Sidama / KeffaFarm: Bensa / AndarachaAltitude: 1800 - 2000 m a. s. l.Variety: HeirloomProcessing: Natural / Washed What does processing mean? After harvesting, the coffee cherry is a fruit that looks like a cross between a hibiscus fruit and a cherry. The flesh of the fruit has to be removed, then the seeds are dried (the seeds are the green coffee, i.e. we actually make our favorite morning drink from the seeds of the coffee cherry), and these seeds (the green coffee beans) reach us.When tasted side by side, the difference between the two coffees is perfectly felt: an experience that is rarely experienced so clearly.Of course, both coffees are light roasted Ethiopian, with the typical taste and aroma of such coffees. We think this box is a worthy member of the "Curiosity" product line, as there hasn't been much opportunity to show (beyond telling) the differences in processing.
