Luz Helena
€27,00 – €103,00
This passion-fruit-infused coffee will make you miss summer a little bit less. Obviously, this coffee tastes of passion fruit. I mean, how could it not? But it doesn’t stop there! You will also find bright-pink notes of bubblegum (or should we say, bubble-yum?) and grenadine, which are the perfect accoutrements to the acidity of those prominent passion fruit notes. Luz Helena also ends on a sweet note, with fresh mango flavours and comforting apple cider goodness.
Since this coffee comes from a microlot, we can’t be sure if and when we’ll get our hands on the next batch, so make sure that you get it while you can!

Luz Helena Salazar – Cofinet – Keen Coffee
Collaboration
As you well know, one of our favourite things is to mess around in our lab. That’s probably why we have a soft spot for producers who share our passion for experimentation. We have found a wonderfully kindred spirit in Luz Helena Salzar of the Finca Maracay farm in Colombia. Luz doesn’t only subject her beans to anaerobic fermentation, she also adds dehydrated passion fruit pulp into the mix, giving this microlot a sweet-and-sour complexity that will haunt our taste buds deep into the next year.

Even for my untrained senses, passion fruit is apparent in this coffee (at least while freshly roasted and brewed). Although, this is infusion, you don’t get any unpleasant or associations with cheap “caramel” or “vanilla” flavored coffees from a supermarket. Very tasty, brilliant and high-end (smart+natural way to infuse coffee – I’ll give you that :)). The cup is also not heavy and sweet, that reminded me even decaf to some extent. Although I’m guilty of putting sugar in my black coffee, but I reduced the amount of sugar to half of my usual norm with this coffee.
I strongly recommend this one to try! Get it while it lasts.

I usually don’t leave reviews for Keen Coffee beans (all of them are the great) but this one is exceptionally perfect! As a person who likes passion fruit and mango the microlot Luz Helena is just simply the best one I’ve ever tasted. Try it yourself and enjoy the flavor!

Thanks! We tried several infused coffees, but this one was the only one that made it. But we really love it too!
