THE DEETS

Lao Xu Zhai Village is in the Yunnan Province in southwestern China. Yunnan’s mountainous landscape, rich volcanic soil, and subtropical climate provide the ideal conditions for growing tasty coffee. This particular lot is a naturally processed Catimor. Lao Xu is a sweet cup of coffee with hints of plum and cherry, warm notes of baking spice and chocolate, and a subtle herbal finishing note like anise. 

BREW IT RIGHT

  • Drip: 17:1
    Espresso: 3:1

  • Start with the standard grind for both drip and espresso

  • Let’s go with the Hario V60 for dynamic cups that really sing.

  • Let's go espresso and get ready for a sweet and tasty treat.

REST IN PEACE

As coffee rests, the volatility of the roast mellows, allowing it's natural sweetness and varietal character to shine. We rest washed coffees 5-10 days, naturals for 10-15 days, and experimentals for 15-30 days.
