We have three coffees from El Socorro this year, a Red Bourbon, a Laurina which was previously offered as a Serious Select and now this Pacamara. This is a cultivar, a man-made cross between the large Maragogipe varietal and sweet Pacas Bourbon.
Vanilla and peanut aromas. Extremely sweet cup, some lychee. Not typical Pacamara dark fruit flavors but rather big fleshy fruits like pear and peach. The flavors deepens as the coffee cools. Juicy and vibrant.
Some Serious Select coffees derive from international coffee competitions which seek to rank the best coffee in a particular country in a given year, some are from private auctions - like the world renowned Hacienda Esmeralda from Panama - and still others are the product of experimentation by growers pushing the quality envelope.
Willoughby's participates in many events, sometimes as jurors, always with interest.
These highly sought after and often more expensive coffees are what Serious Select is all about.
