What is a Pure Origin coffee?<\/b><\/h2>\n

Pure Origin vs. Blend <\/b><\/h3>\n

As the name suggests, a pure origin coffee is made up entirely of beans from one sole geographical location, one sole <\/span>terroir<\/span><\/i>. It differs in that respect from a \u201cblend\u201d, which includes beans from various areas that have been mixed to produce a balanced taste.<\/span> As with wine, the <\/span>terroir <\/i><\/b>(the nature of the soil, the climate, exposure to sunlight, botanical species) and the way the beans are harvested and processed (the drying method used, for example) have a real impact on the final product. <\/span>Terroir coffee<\/b> always has a unique and typical character. Indeed, newcomers are often taken aback by its distinct taste, which can be completely different to the standardised \u201ccoffee flavour\u201d that we\u2019re used to.<\/span> As surprising as it may seem, pure origin coffees are a relatively recent trend that started out on the West Coast of the USA.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taking it slowly<\/b><\/h3>\n

I\u2019ll start with a word of warning: although pure origin coffees might be all the rage just now! It\u2019s best to go gently to begin with, as the strength of flavours may take you by surprise if you\u2019re trying them for the very first time!<\/span> But why? Well put simply, our palates have become accustomed over the years to a mainstream coffee taste, forced upon us by big companies and roasters whose sole aim is to create coffees that please the greatest number of people.<\/span> But for the more curious among you, I\u2019ve put together a starter selection of pure origin coffees, from the most accessible to the most surprising!<\/span> Taste buds at the ready!<\/span><\/p>\n\n <\/section>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Indonesia – Cosmai Specialty Coffee Beans<\/h2>\n

It is grown at 1200 metres of altitude by a cooperative of farms in Tanjung Breinging, in the north of the island of Sumatra.<\/span> It presents a balanced flavours with fruity, jasmine and citrus notes.<\/span> Selected by Italian brand Cosmai, the coffee beans are roasted longer than average in the finest Italian traditions.<\/span> Full-bodied<\/b> with a <\/span>thick crema<\/b> and a <\/span>long finish<\/b>, I recommend drinking this coffee as <\/span>espresso <\/b>or <\/span>ristretto<\/b>.<\/span> It is perfectly accessible for newcomers to pure origin coffee, but still has the capacity to surprise your taste buds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Caf\u00e9 Pure Origine Costa Rica – La Grange<\/h2>\n

We are in the presence of an exceptional coffee produced by award-winning French roaster Vincent Ballot.<\/span> The coffee grown in Costa Rica is considered to be among the very best in the world. The country has earned its reputation thanks to a climate that is particularly well-suited to the coffee plant. But also, and above all, thanks to the fact that Costa Rican coffee beans tend to be picked by hand, resulting in a riper and more selective harvest. Particular care is also given to the way in which the coffee is grown \u2013 coffee producers in Costa Rica often use organic methods, and have done so for many years.<\/span> This 100% Arabica coffee is grown on the Las Lajas plantation, which produces organic coffees grown at altitudes of between 1400 and 1600 metres. This ancient plantation offers coffee that is steeped in history and rich in flavour.<\/span> And the taste? Expect indulgent chocolate and almond notes, and a lemony finish.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brazil, Rose Diamond – Caf\u00e9s Lugat<\/h2>\n

And last but not least, I give you… a blend! That\u2019s right, certain blends can still be classified as \u201cpure origin\u201d if all the coffee beans come from the same geographical region.<\/span> This exceptional <\/span>Arabica blend (Mundo Novo\/Catuai)<\/b> is made up of coffee beans from three high-altitude farms in the <\/span>Cerrado <\/b>region. They have been selected because of their similarity with one another, not to mention the exceptional quality of their flavours (which are rich in gourmet aromas).<\/span> This blend has a PGI (Protected Geographical Indication)<\/strong> label certifying that the coffee<\/strong> originates from the Cerrado Mineiro<\/strong> region. The coffee plants are grown at altitudes ranging from 800 to 1300 metres<\/strong>; they are renowned for producing consistently high quality coffee<\/strong> with a unique identity.<\/span><\/p>\n
