As always we are working on improving our service, social impact and of course coffee quality. On this last point I am just writing to let you know what is happening in the world of specialty coffee at SRC.
A huge jump in African coffees has meant we have to be careful what we bring in. Ethiopian and Kenyan coffees are always popular. Unfortunately current green bean prices for these have almost doubled on last years crop. We will still be bringing you these beans, however they will be roasted more sporadically. Please keep an eye on our shelves for these.
On the bright side. Central American coffees are tasting even better than last year. Cleaner, more vibrant cups. Wonderful bright floral flavours and an excellent consistency throughout the lots. All this means greater coffee enjoyment for all. Although the first Peru lots have landed we are still waiting on yours and our favourite, El Salvador. Due to land in April you will see these hitting our shelves and grinders not long after.
India is continuing to provide consistent, flavour packed coffee. Many thanks go to their rigorous screening and great care of the product. We have recently rediscovered the joy of Monsoon Malabar at SRC and is currently forming an integral part of our Social Blend. Of course Tiger Mountain is here and is looking to make a few appearances as guest bean.
To help you and us with all the new coffees SRC are looking to start hosting Coffee Appreciation nights at both our McKillop and Racecourse rd stores. Along with alternative brewing methods for these fantastic single origin coffees. Please ask any of our staff for details on these and they can point you in the right direction.
