DAK Coffee Roasters - House of Plum - Espresso - 250g

The story:
Our partners at DAK did the heavy lifting here, hunting down this lot from the Cedrobamba Collective in the Cusco region of Peru. Grown in volcanic soil at a rock-solid 2000 masl, these beans endure cool afternoon breezes that force the cherries to mature at a snail's pace. This slow-motion growth cycles all that environmental stress into a massive sugar reserve, turning a natural field blend into a heavy-hitting espresso powerhouse.

The taste:
This cup hits your palate like a bag of wine-gums melted into a thick, silky syrup. You’re getting an immediate punch of dark plum and sun-dried raisins, backed by a toasted hazelnut finish that keeps the sweetness from going off the rails. It’s dense, it’s syrupy, and it has a mouthfeel so smooth it makes standard supermarket espresso feel like drinking sandpaper.

The feeling:
This is for the "I want my cup to taste like a candy bar" rebel who isn't afraid of a little funk. If you’re tired of thin, boring shots and want an espresso that can actually punch through milk or stand alone as a decadent dessert, House of Plum is your new house rule. It’s a bold, sweet, and unapologetic brew for those who demand more from their morning grind.
