Tasting notes
In the roaster’s words
This limited microlot is your chance to try something genuinely different. Grown in South Sudan, Excelsa is one of coffee’s rarer varieties, with a distinctive character that brings together lighter, brighter flavours and deeper, richer notes in the same cup. It’s not just interesting to drink. Excelsa is gaining attention for its resilience in a changing climate, making it an exciting glimpse at what the future of coffee could look like. With around 25% less caffeine than typical coffee, it’s a great choice when you want plenty of flavour without quite as much caffeine. And because this is a limited microlot, once it’s gone, it’s gone. For curious coffee drinkers ready to explore beyond the usual, this is a rare opportunity to discover something new — and a little taste of where coffee might be heading next.
