Although we've purchased many coffees from Renardo Ovalle, this was one of the most unique tasting coffees that he offered us this year. On the cupping table there were distinct notes of cardamom, orange, papaya, with a floral aftertaste and lingering brown-sugar sweetness. There are three different varieties planted on this smaller lot, with Bourbon making up the largest portion.

    Sweet, well balanced

    Definitely get the muscovado sugar, but not so much on the cara cara and cardamom. Regardless, well balanced roast. Bonus was a good amount of crema. Brewed on a Superautomatic.

    Strong, bold, smooth, yet slight smoky note coffee - 4.5 stars

    We have purchased multiple different Renardo Ovalle coffees over the years. His farms truly have different flavor notes.

    This one is roasted to provide a clean taste in our Aeropress.

    It is a Medium roast. A picture is attached.

    It comes out with fewer flavor notes than we expected. We didn’t note any chocolate flavors. It had a strong, bolder coffee taste with a smoky side that is noticed in your nose, after sipping it.

    We prefer soothing flavors, more like another Sightglass coffee, Cubito, offers, but for what this is roasted to, it is good.

    First time purchaser

    I was embarrassingly excited for this batch to arrive. It did not disappoint. Such a smooth cup of coffee (I use an Aero Press) with amazing flavor and notes especially the Muscavodo sugar. It pleases me to know the origin and the back story. Customer for life!

    Best One Yet!!!

    This one just arrived this month from our single origin subscription. Definitely a winner. Very smooth and you can taste the orange note from the first sip. The notes were so spot on that we infused the beans with cream and made a winning basque coffee cheesecake with it as well. Definitely recommend!

    Orange Candy

    This is delicious. All the tasting notes--orange, cardamom, sugar--come through. I did 18 grams in, 40 out in 30 seconds, and added 92 grams of steamed oat milk. Wonderful. Even more wonderful with oat milk and a 50 mg of maple syrup!
