Eye of the Tiger Espresso

Presenting the latest edition of our seasonally evolving espresso blend, Eye of the Tiger. This iteration is built around a coffee produced by an all-women’s cooperative located in Southern Rwanda near the country’s border with Burundi.

We then added a coffee produced in the Comayagua region of Central Honduras. Comayagua is one of the areas in Honduras where coffee was first cultivated, and because of its optimal climate, rich soil, and dedicated producers, it remains one of the most productive in the country. This coffee contributes a cocoa sweetness and subtle nutty tones, bringing balance to the blend’s more assertive components.

The next coffee in Eye of the Tiger Espresso is a bold natural processed coffee from Nicaragua’s Matagalpa department. Flor de Dalia is a farmer’s cooperative that Equator has been buying from for the past six years. This year’s harvest contributes juicy citrus notes to the blend.

We finished the blend with a coffee produced at Cerro Azul, a coffee farm owned and operated by our quality-obsessed friends at Granja La Esperanza in Colombia. This Enano (Dwarf Gesha) variety gives a creamy body to this iteration of Eye of the Tiger Espresso.
