Variety:Catimor

This is a beautiful Dark Woods exclsuive micro-lot from producers Tang Xiang, Tian Cai and Guiben Xishuangbanna, sourced from deep within Yunnan. Located just East of Pu-er city in the Shigaoqing and Guiben areas, this an internationally famous tea growing region that is now enjoying similar success with its specialty coffees.

Moderate acidity and an enjoyably soft and creamy body make for an easy-to-brew and rewarding introduction to Chinese coffee. We have featured more fruit-forward naturally processed coffees from this region before, but this honey processed coffee should appeal to consumers seeking more familiar flavours. Fundamentally this is an easy drinking and balanced brew with caramel/burnt sugar sweetness and just a hint of juicy pineapple to keep things interesting.

China Yunnan, Gui Ben Lan Hua Honey

Nestling in the West Yorkshire Pennines, we are surrounded by dramatic moorland, dry-stone walls and ancient woods. We see reminders of the area's heritage, shaped by the Industrial Revolution; from the 18th Century canal locks to the remnants of old mills and weirs. It was this that gave birth to our river-side Victorian textile mill, where we roast our coffee on a vintage Probat drum roaster.

Dark Woods use specialty grade coffees, which have cleaner more distinctive flavours than cheaper commercial coffees and are traceable to skilled farmers and their farms across the world. Carefully roasted to produce an array of flavours to suit a wide range of styles and tastes - which may be why Dark Woods gained another 13 awards in 2020's Great Taste Awards.
