Big Buddy Blend is an espresso-focused coffee blend designed for exceptional texture and crema. The base is a Brazilian Paubrasil from the Cerrado Mineiro region, providing a full body and chocolatey notes. This is complemented by a Colombian Golden Huila from the Huila region, which adds complexity and a subtle fruitiness. The flavor profile is characterized by dark chocolate, almond, and amaretto, resulting in a balanced, sweet cup with a long chocolatey aftertaste.
Stow Coffee Roasters was founded in Ljubljana in 2016 and runs its roastery in Kamnik, with the stated aim of lifting Slovenian coffee to an international specialty standard. It was set up from the start as three connected parts with the roastery, cafés in Ljubljana, and Stow Academy, which has grown into one of the country's main coffee education centres. The roastery buys seasonally and works with single origins alongside rare, competition-level lots, which it sells under the Stow Rare label, sourced from well-regarded farms and producers. Roasting for espresso is aimed at balance, clarity and sweetness, while the filter range is built to show each coffee's origin character, its variety, terroir and processing method.
