SAPA SUNLIGHT

Sapa Sunlight

After speaking with Andrew and being assured by him that we would definitely be able to do something with this bean for our business we ordered and got 55 pounds coming, after it arrived we started working with it roasting it at different charge temps as well as different drop temps , The results were a great cold brew roast that delivered a great brightness with notes of citrus , floral and hints of stone fruits, we also worked with it for a hot cup also, we found it to be at best at a city+ roast, The aroma still carried a floral while the taste was nutty and hints of plum, Great care should be given to not over roast ,we found that it will lose flavor really quick, we have all agreed here at Silverrun coffee crafters that this Bean will make a great addition to our lineup that we already have….

Very smooth

This coffe so far seems to be very smooth, and flavorful. I don't have a very great roasting setup so it's difficult for me to achieve the exact light roast I prefer. Im still using a air popper after several years. Though im able to get a somewhat even light to light medium. This coffee and most all of the Peruvian coffees in my opinion are very forgiving as far as still letting the natural flavors of the coffee come through and not just tasting the roast notes. So far sunrise trading Peruvian coffees hands down my favorite. Hopefully I'll get a better roaster soon. I can only imagine how great the potential of these coffees is.

Really good coffee

I'm just starting out as a home roaster, so my roasting method was simple and primitive. I used a cast iron skillet to roast the beans and to my delight they came out great. I tasted notes of roasted pecans and stone fruit. The acidity was very mild and bright. I will be buying these beans again.
