Odyssey blend v3 has landed
Peru has long been my favourite origin for espresso, so I always knew I wanted to create a version of Odyssey with Peruvian coffee at its core.
Odyssey v3 is actually a blend of 4 coffees, with the Peru component being a blend in itself, consisting of 50% Chirinos and 50% San José de Lourdes, (two neighbouring districts in the San Ignacio province). In the cup, Chirinos brings depth and a punchy body, while San José de Lourdes layers in sweet fruitiness and a silky texture.
To complete the picture, I added 30% Brazil Santa Cruz to round out the body and give the espresso enough presence to shine through milk. Finally, 10% naturally processed Ethiopian Guji Megadu lifts the sweetness and transforms the stone fruit character into pure, juicy nectarine.
Safe to say, this is the best Odyssey yet
Espresso recipe:
18g coffee in
