Rhinestone Cowboy

Rhinestone Cowboy is back in our lineup! This line of offerings represents single-origin offerings from South America, rotating seasonally as supply allows.

Tasting notes will vary as coffees come and go but you can expect lots of chocolate, dried fruits and florals in the cup. It's a solid daily drinker and a great single-origin espresso.

This rendition of Rhinestone Cowboy is a wonderful single-origin Peru offering from the district of Querocoto in the region of Cajamarca. Located only a few hours from the renowned coffee-growing region of Jaen, the land of Querocoto was originally used for cattle farming but was later transformed in order to grow coffee.

After harvest, the coffee undergoes 48-50 hours of fermentation in concrete tanks, with special care given to avoid over-fermentation. The coffee is then dried on beds for 10-20 days, depending on the weather.

In the cup, this coffee is simple, clean and delicious. We taste caramel candy, raisin and baking spices. We find it warm and easy to sip with a clarity that keeps us coming back for another cup.

Currently: Querocoto, Peru

Tasting Notes: Caramel Candy, Raisin, Baking Spices
