Jaguara Summer Espresso

Tasting notes

Jaguara Summer is a Brazilian espresso that delivers exactly what its name promises: warm, round summer vibes in your cup. The Yellow Bourbon from the renowned Jaguara Farm in Minas Gerais grows at an altitude of 1040 meters and is naturally processed. This results in a sweet, juicy profile with notes of orange, cherry, milk chocolate, and praline.

The coffee comes directly from an award-winning farm known for sustainable farming methods and consistent quality. With a cup score of 83.25, Jaguara Summer is perfectly suited for espresso, cappuccino, and milk-based drinks – aromatic, balanced, and surprisingly easy to extract.

The medium roast clearly brings out the chocolate and praline notes, providing a pleasant sweetness. The fruit notes become softer and recede into the background, while the coffee as a whole becomes rounder and more balanced.

Flavour profile

Chocolatey

A soft, round espresso with clear milk chocolate sweetness and praline-like depth. Subtle fruit notes of orange and cherry provide balance without being overpowering.

Process

Natural (dry process)

In dry processing, also called natural, the whole cherry stays on the coffee. It dries in the sun while the fruit pulp passes its sugar on to the bean.

This takes weeks and needs turning every day so nothing ferments further. In return the coffee gains a fruity depth that a washed coffee never reaches.

Variety

Yellow Bourbon

Yellow Bourbon is a mutation of red Bourbon that appeared in São Paulo in the 1930s. Its cherries turn not red but bright yellow when ripe.

For the harvest that takes a delicate touch, because the colour difference between ripe and unripe is smaller. The effort is rewarded with the pronounced sweetness the variety is known for.

How to get
the most out of it.

As an espresso it is soft and round. In milk drinks the chocolate and praline notes really open up.

To the recipe
Ground coffee

In the double portafilter basket, always weigh it.

In the cup

A 1:2.5 ratio keeps the chocolate and praline notes soft and round.

Extraction time

Counted from pressing the button or pulling the lever.

Brew temperature

Medium roast, 93 degrees works very well.

Our tip: Ideal as an espresso and in milk-based drinks such as Flat White or Cappuccino, where the chocolatey and praline-like notes develop particularly smoothly.
