Chapin Blend
By: James Gourmet Coffee
£6.75 (+pp)
This has a big body, caramelised and rich. In milk, this is full-on grown-up hot chocolate.
Roasters note: This blend is named (and originally designed for Colonel Grumpy) Chapin or Chapino; which is a friendly term for a person from Guatemala, a little like someone from the UK might be called a Brit or in Herefordshire “Buddy!”.
Chapin blend was originally designed as a single origin, all Guatemalan espresso. We just buy the very best single farms from Guatemala every year as we LOVE the complexity, sweetness, and brightness we get with the altitude.
Chapin is a more developed roast than many of our other coffees. It cuts through milk with ease but also works as espresso, by softening the acidity by developing the level of roast a little more.
