All coffees in the Black Crow White Pigeon range are lovingly cultivated in extraordinary settings and amongst one-of-a-kind conditions. Their flavour and overall quality are decided by the soil and the microclimate. Plus, these varieties are grown at the top of the world—that is to say, in the highlands of different countries, where the ripening process is slower and lets the flavours develop more complexity. While each Black Crow White Pigeon coffee is its own distinct experience, keep in mind that coffees from a specific region or continent tend to share certain flavours in common:African coffee. A true haven for coffee connoisseurs, Ethiopia, Uganda, and Marcala are the epicentres of exceptional coffee. The Black Crow White Pigeon varieties grown in these countries are a unique delight. Their flavour profile is a mix of fruity, floral, tea- or wine-like notes, topped off with a juicy finish.
Asian coffee has been gaining popularity lately, and the coffee market in countries like Myanmar and Vietnam has been growing steadily for the past few years, with growers in this region shifting their focus towards premium-quality coffee. Asian coffee beans are known for their distinct flavours, which are often described as bitter and include notes of spices, chocolate, tobacco, red wine, and wood.
South American coffee. These coffees are a great place to start your specialty coffee journey! If you’re new to this world, we recommend exploring Brazilian or Colombian varieties first. You’ll love the balanced flavour, natural sweetness, and delicious hints of chocolate, nuts, and fruit. South American coffees are generally less acidic than African ones, and milder than Asian varieties.
Central American coffee is a real treat! From Guatemala to Nicaragua, these countries produce a diverse range of flavours: from tropical fruit to nuts. What all Central American coffees have in common though is their unique taste profile and distinct character.
Set out on a journey around the world without leaving your sofa by giving our medium-roasted Black Crow White Pigeon coffee set a try! It features several different varieties that showcase the unique traditions and flavours of Nicaragua, Brazil, and Ethiopia. With these high-quality arabica beans, each cuppa is bound to be a delight. When developing this line, we’ve also considered those who can’t or don’t want to consume caffeine. If you’re one of them, you can enjoy specialty coffee too! Black Crow White Pigeon Colombia Decaf is an excellent alternative to regular coffee. It’ll let you savour amazing specialty coffee flavours without the jitters associated with caffeine.How to Choose the Right Black Crow White Pigeon Coffee for You?
In the journey of specialty coffee, an important role is played by the person who brews and tastes the final drink. For Black Crow White Pigeon coffees to bring out their finest qualities, the right roasting, processing and brewing methods must be selected.Roast Level
In the world of coffee, there are many different ways to brew your drink, and each of them lets different flavours shine through. Two of the most popular brewing methods are espresso and filter. While both of them can be used for coffees from the Black Crow White Pigeon line, the roast level must still be considered when searching for the right coffee for you. For those who love the strong taste of espresso coffee, specialty varieties can offer an even richer, more intense flavour, with unique aromas and notes that would be hard to obtain using coffee of a lower quality. If you enjoy bold flavours and prefer coffee without any extra ingredients, choose a medium to dark roast for your espressos. Filter coffee brings out the subtlest notes hidden in the beans, and boasts a buttery, silky body, as well as a clean cup. Go for light roasts to get the most out of your specialty filter brews.Processing Method
When looking for the right coffee for you, the processing method is another important characteristic to consider. It has a huge impact on the final taste and body of your brew. The natural process endows beans with a richer, sweeter taste, and a fuller body. The washed process is known for clean, mild flavours, a light body, and pronounced notes of fruit. The honey process crafts a medium body and sweet notes of fruit or tea, while anaerobically processed coffee is particularly fruity and boasts unique, exotic notes.Brewing Method
Another criterion should be your preferred brewing method. It can bring out different qualities of your coffee, providing you with a variety of flavour experiences. Light-roasted coffees are perfect for in-cup brewing or filter brewing methods like a filter coffee machine, a French press, a Chemex, an AeroPress, or even a cold brew coffee maker. While these brewing tools may differ, the outcome is always a quick cup of coffee marked by deep flavours and strong aromas. Coffee beans of a medium to darker roast are perfect for bean-to-cup machines, espresso machines, and moka pots. When brewed in these appliances, specialty coffee may be marked by acidity, yet this is not the kind of acidity that should be avoided. Only coffees of the highest quality boast acidic notes like that, described as sweet and reminiscent of wine or tropical fruit.Black or White?
Take a look at the range of flavours in this coffee line: as you can see, it’s incredibly diverse. Before you buy a certain coffee though, consider its packaging. Fruity, floral, berryish coffees come in a white bag, while earthy, chocolatey ones are paired with the colour black. The numbers on the packaging (1, 2, 3... 24) serve a dual purpose: on the one hand, they’re like chapters in a book, and on the other, they help you remember your favourite coffee so that you can grab the same one next time.Need Advice?
