Beans Coffee Box - Django Coffee - Ethiopia

One company that I am becoming more and more familiar with (and I ain't even mad about it) is Django Coffee.


In one of my last subscriptions to Beans Coffee Club I received a fantastic Ethiopian from Django. 







Django Coffee Co. is a roasting company that has taken inspiration from Melbourne's flourishing and robust coffee scene, and to make it their mission to provide quality speciality coffee with a low environmental impact.
Sourcing their own green coffee beans from coffee farmers around the world and then roasting the beans in small batches to be able to create unique flavours. 
Django Coffee is always 100% committed to providing information on the origins, the farmers, and the coffee beans journey from farm all the way to your cup. 
They are a company that respects the farmers, the environment, as well as their customers. 







The Beans 
Tefera Kebede - Bansa Sidama, Southern Ethiopia
Process - Natural
Altitude - 2000 MASL
Taste Notes - Apricot, Tamarind, Champagne







The Brew 

V60 
16g of Coffee
250g of Water
30 Second Bloom - With Agitation
3 Minute 30 Second Total Brew Time







Taste - A super smooth medium bodied cup, super orange-y with a citrus smoothness. A really balanced and clean cup every time. 
This was a super delicious coffee, really embodied it's taste notes, it was gorgeously citrus-y, with a slight boozy taste as it cooled down - an all around incredible cup to taste.

Django have released some stunning coffees, and this was definitely one of them! Absolutely delicious!

Your Beans Club Box 2



It's time again for another blog post on the Your Beans Club Box - if you missed the first blog post back in November on these guys, you can read it here

If you would like to learn more information about the company, what they're about, what their aim is and what they offer, I really recommend heading to that blog post to give it a read.




The coffee I received in this box was Django Coffee Company - on this blog we've looked into Django once before on I think a Dog and Hat post. So I was excited to try it again as I thoroughly enjoyed the coffee, and I managed to speak to the lovely people at the Django stand back at Bristol Coffee Festival and they were absolutely delightful. 



I love how colourful Django's packaging is - my only complaint (and this will only be me) about the packaging is the brown bag - and I will tell you why. I AM A MESSY COFFEE MAKER - I somehow always manage to spill coffee or water EVERYWHERE, and this bag really shows me up.
That is all.
(and a bloggers nightmare of a smudged date)


San Antonio - Guatemala

Huehuetenango is often referred to as "Huehue". 
Wit altitudes over 2,000 metres. Huehue is the highest and driest region of Guatemala. It is only one of three regions without volcanic soil. Historically, it has been one of the more remote areas of the country and accessibility has been challenging. In the past, many farmers have used oxen or have carried their coffees on their back. Huhuetenango enjoys easy access to water sources, enabling many producers to process their coffee. 



The beans 

Origin - Huhuetenango 
Varietal - Bourbon, Caturra
Altitude - 1432-1828 MASL
Process - Honey 
Taste Notes - Plum, Peach, Grape


Brew time 

V60 Brew
18g of Coffee
275ml of Water
3 Minute Total Brew Time
40ml Bloom, 30 Seconds, 10 Second Agitation 




This brew came out super delicious - so fruity, so peachy, with a lovely underlying stone fruit acidity. As it cooled, you definitely get more of a grape/wine bitterness.
