This coffee is an SL34 from Taiwan, grown in the Alishan region and processed as a natural. It delivers a floral, black tea- and herb-forward profile with a sweetness reminiscent of dates or honey, evoking Taiwanese bubble tea. The offering is a limited release from Drip Roasters.
Drip Roasters is a Bern-based specialty coffee roastery run by brothers Dennys and Fabian. They'd been roasting for two years before opening their café on Eigerplatz in 2020. All their coffees are single origins. The lineup is balanced, from beans that are roasted a shade darker for broader appeal, to special lots that sit on the lighter end. The selection shifts depending on the season, and especially after origin visits, but is always fully traceable.
