Yellow Bourbon is a single origin coffee from El Jaragual farm in Amalfi, Antioquia, northwestern Colombia. This 150-hectare farm employs unique processing techniques including yeast inoculation and thermal shock to enhance the beans' aromatic qualities. The result is a well-balanced cup featuring bright fruit notes, red berry sweetness, a hint of apple tartness, and a lightly caramelised finish with a marshmallow-like sugary edge.
Rounton Coffee Roasters operates from a converted granary in East Rounton, North Yorkshire, roasting Monday through Friday on a Loring S35 Kestrel and S15 Falcon. The team started out at farmers' markets with hand scribbled roast profiles and built into a multi award winning roastery. Their approach is characteristically Yorkshire: straightforward and focused on making "dead good coffee." They recommend brewing at least ten days after roast to let the flavours open up, a benefit of the convection roasting process which helps coffee stay fresh longer. Packaging is carbon neutral and home recyclable. Their Sparkling Water Decaf uses a process that preserves more natural taste than conventional decaffeination.
