Unplanned cupping at Smittens Coffee & Tea. Coffees cupped were kenya (i'm not sure which part of Kenya), Sumatra Blue Batak and Indian Monsoon Malabar. Talking about Indian Monsoon beans, i have another 100 grams of it,bought at Toby's Estate Asia. Who wants it?
There were 3 different roast profile for the Kenyan beans. One was roasted till 11mins, another 14mins and a batch till 15mins. By now every single one in Singapore would already "know their coffee", hence i won't explain much about this. I had some peppery notes with slight acidity for the Sumatra Blue
Batak. Batak reminded of an ex-colleague, Pastiria Sri Ayu Tumbuck.hahah!
Lastly,the Indian Monsoon beans, as
expected there is no significant flavours that we could captured. It tasted like the bark of a typical raintree along Singapore roads. No i hadn't taste a tree bark before! When you're free, stop by the side of the road
and smell one.Don't bite the tree! Smell it, be creative.
