Behind the Beans
To help Eric Wright’s pursuit for quality over quantity CCR has a team of coffee scouts enabling farmers to better their techniques & understanding for reasons behind defects and plant diseases. Around his efforts a dedicated supply network has formed defined by personal & direct relationship from crop to cup. Coffee is produced with attention to detail often small nano lots, allowing CCR to experiment with state-of-the art processing methods as anaerobic fermentation, maceration, and yeasts. Effective pre-sorting of uniform coffee cherries like the one we selected here resemble what this segment truly stands for. Each cherry seed was hand-selected due to its size caused by ‘peaberry’ mutation. The attention to detail going into sorting and processing these mutated peaberries is what inspired us to serve our guests this limited edition (with only 120kg of green coffee being produced in the world!) to inspire a ‘wow-coffee-can-taste-like-that-moment’. It resembles the energy of the craftsmanship we deliver in our spaces on a daily basis.
