The Art of Slow Roasting: How It Influences Our Coffee's Flavor Profile
Artisanal Coffee
Import Team
Slow roasting is not just a thermal process; it is an alchemy that transforms green beans into aromatic treasures. In our workshop, every batch of coffee from the mountainous regions of Peru and Colombia goes through a meticulous journey, where time and temperature are essential allies.
Why Slow Roasting Makes the Difference
By extending the roasting time to 14-18 minutes, unlike fast industrial roasting, we allow for the complete and balanced development of complex sugars. This leads to:
- Rounder and more pleasant acidity, without harsh notes.
- Denser and creamier body, ideal for espresso or pour-over.
- Rich secondary aromas of chocolate, caramelized nuts, or forest fruits, depending on the origin.
