In the world of specialty coffee, exclusivity and fair trade are becoming increasingly important and are part of the experience. Therefore, it is no wonder that microlot coffee is becoming more and more popular! The taste simply becomes even more interesting when you know that carefully selected coffee batches have been roasted by small farms. Of course, there is extensive information about this, which almost invites you to visit the respective farm and see for yourself. But what makes microlot coffee so special and what are the benefits we get from microlot coffee? Find out in our blog post as always. Enjoy reading!
What makes microlot coffee so special?
Microlot coffee is so special because the growing conditions are closely monitored and openly communicated to the buyers. This allows roasters and consumers to trace each step from picking to processing. This is, of course, reflected in the price of microlot coffee - but also in the quality - microlot coffees are usually very small batches and strictly limited. This is why they are also very popular with roasters and connoisseurs for their exclusivity.
What are the benefits of microlot coffees?
Unique cup profiles:
By growing microlot coffee in small sections on farms, with special plant varieties and growing conditions, the beans can develop unique aromas. These are documented in the most precise way, so roasters and consumers know the altitude, climate, soil conditions, and who actually produced the coffee.
Small lots, clear origin, and distinct profiles:
Microlots come from clearly defined lots and can often be traced more precisely to the farm, plot, variety, or processing method. With transparently documented supply chains, price and origin information can be better traced. Depending on the farm, monocultures that are harmful to the soil are not created, but great importance is placed on shade management, water management, and the nutrient quality of the soil without chemicals.
Highest quality:
Due to the very strictly controlled growing conditions, microlot coffee is of the highest quality. Furthermore, the very selective harvest of only truly ripe cherries and the gentle processing only lead to the best beans. This means that there are hardly any defects in the raw coffees that could negatively affect the taste.
Why should you buy microlot coffee?
As a true coffee lover of SIMON&BEARNS Coffee, you have probably already drunk microlot coffee without realizing it. One example is our filter coffee from Rwanda (Ngororero washed). Here, small quantities of cherries are processed individually according to the initial quality. This means that some batches are larger and some are smaller - individual and full of character, just the way we like it!
Microlot coffee is therefore an excellent way to discover the complexity of coffee aromas - even within a single farm, just at different times. Every cup tells a story, and we love to listen!
Conclusion:
Microlot coffee is more than just an everyday pick-me-up. It is intended to represent a direct connection to the world of coffee and stands for unique quality alongside exclusive moments of enjoyment.
At SIMON&BEARNS, we only look for the best specialty coffees for you, and these are often microlot coffees. We provide you with information about the farms, the farmers, the growing conditions, and cordially invite you to get in touch with us. We want our coffee not only to brighten your day, but also to make the origin, price, and connections behind the coffee and in the growing countries as transparent as possible. Thank you for supporting us in this!
