The Villa Betulia Sidra dialed really quickly for us. We found the best dial to be a grind size around neutral combined with a 21g dose to produce a TDS of 1.45% and extraction of 20.5%. In general, I’m noticing that Sidra varieties taste great with a 21g dose. The higher dose amplifies the fruity and candy notes. This coffee tastes like candy when dialed well and should have a long, sweet, juicy aftertaste.

This coffee is a fantastic expression of a “classic” gesha flavor profile. You should expect lots of delicate florals and positive tea-like characteristics with a medium-high acidity. Due to the delicate nature of this coffee, I would pay special attention to avoiding over-extraction, especially since gesha coffees can have a tendency to brew slowly. The extra 1 gram up-dose should give you enough flavor/body to offset a coarser grind.

This coffee is a washed CM coffee, so you should expect high levels of acidity and sweetness that balance each other well, while the tasting notes are relatively delicate. Similar to Terroir, this coffee presents with a lot of floral notes, but features more sweetness in comparison. It should have a nice sparkling acidity alongside syrupy fruit, but subtle fruits like peach. Be sure to adjust your dial until you’re perceiving that lingering sweetness in the cup.
