Thailand Coffee Fest – with Martin H
Martin H – Finca Juana
- Country of origin: El Salvador
- Farm: Finca Juana
- Variety: Kenya
- Processing: 48h Natural
Blueberry – Rum
The cherries for this coffee specialty grow in El Salvador in the Buenos Aires region on the Finca Juana.
It is the same coffee with which Martin Wölfl competed in his first World Brewers Cup.
The coffee originates from Kenya. In the 1940s, a Salvadoran farmer took them back to El Salvador from a hunting trip in Africa. A decade later, he simply pulled the plants out and threw them away. Juana's husband took the coffee plants and planted them on the Finca Juana. They have been thriving there ever since and produce good coffee. This means that the trees are over 75 years old and still productive.
Thailand Coffee Fest – with Martin I
Martin I – El Diviso Geisha
- Country of origin: Colombia
- Farm: Finca El Diviso
- Variety: Geisha
- Preparation: Washed Mosto
Grapefruit – Lemon – Darjeeling
This washed geisha comes from the Huila region of Colombia. The cherries are grown on the Lasso family's Finca El Diviso at an altitude of 1,700 to 1,900 meters.
After harvesting the optimally ripe cherries, they are washed, cleaned and then placed in open plastic bags for oxidation. This is followed by 24 hours of fermentation with the addition of must from previous fermentations of the same variety. The cherries are then depulped and packed for anaerobic fermentation for another 60 hours until the process is interrupted with hot water. Finally, the coffee is dried until it reaches a moisture content of 11%.
Huila is known as a region for growing specialty coffee due to its fertile soils, altitude and ideal climate.
Thailand Coffee Fest – with Martin J
Martin J – Ethiopia
- Country of origin: Ethiopia
- Washingstation: Testi
- Variety: Heirloom
- Treatment: Anaerobic
Exotic fruits – Rum – Caramel
The cherries for this coffee grow in Gersi in the heart of the Yirgacheffe region, which is one of the best known and highest quality growing areas internationally. Our coffee grows at an altitude of 1,600 to 2,000 meters and is currently grown by many hundreds of farmers and collected at a Testi Coffee washing station, processed and then sold to us directly.
Testi has numerous washing stations throughout Ethiopia and gives a good portion of its income back to the farmers and the cities in which they live: With its social projects, the company promotes education and infrastructure in rural areas.
Thailand Coffee Fest – Orea and 2-WayCup present
We're not just bringing these exciting new coffees. We're also bringing the world champion equipment from Orea and 2-WayCup. Martin Wölfl won the world champion title in Chicago with the V4 Dripper from Orea - and with other equipment. Including the absolutely brilliant cups from 2-WayCup. The cups that offer coffee drinkers two different taste experiences because they have two differently shaped sides. The narrower rim of the cup directs the liquid to the front and middle of the tongue, resulting in sweeter and more intense flavors. The wider, funnel-shaped rim, on the other hand, distributes the liquid further back on the tongue, allowing the flavors to develop better and creating a longer-lasting aftertaste.
