Friday Fresh @ 3 is 21st de Septiembre

Friday Fresh: 21st de Septiembre from Zaragoza, Mexico


Friday Fresh: 21st de Septiembre from Zaragoza, MexicoWe are happy to announce the return of 21 de Septiembre!!  This 3CUPS favorite has been missed during the off-season and, as they say, absence makes the heart grow fonder.  Welcome back, dear friend. 

The Coffee...  Picked, fermented, and washed by hand, and then dried.... often on the flat rooftops of the village! Next it makes it way down the winding mountain roads, past ancient cornfields and cocoa farms, to port. It’s perfect small-farmer coffee and incredibly delicious: the signature flavor of the region is a spicy chocolate note which mimics the spicy chocolate that has made Oaxacan cuisine famous. This coffee of the 21st is full-bodied and offers rich, deep notes of dark chocolate, toasted nuts, and sweet cherries.
