Big Man • Brazil

Chocolate | Treacle | Nuts

BIG MAN ORDERS WILL BE POSTED ON 5th DECEMBER

Sourced from Cafeina Women's Group in Brazil, Tres Pontas.  A group of female farmers who get together to share knowledge and produce top-notch beans. These coffee beans are well suited to a medium just-on-the-brink-of-dark roast, along with their chocolatey nature, the roast brings out an almost treacle-like, brown sugar flavour. If you like a strong 'Italian' style coffee, or if you sip espressos with sugar mixed in, this one is for you. It's incredibly versatile so suits most brew methods. 

Origin: Brazil, Tres Pontas, Cafeina Women's Collective
Varietal: Mixed
Process: Natural

About the beans

Single Origin Coffee, sourced from the Tres Pontas region of Brazil. These coffee beans are produced by Jacqueline and Flaviane, who are part of the Cafeina Women's Collective, empowering female producers in the specialty coffee industry. Grown at an altitude of 1150, these beans are hand-picked and processed to ensure the highest quality of flavor.

About the name

Perhaps it's slightly ironic to name these beans "Big Man!" considering they're produced by a womens' collective. However, at some point "Big Man" became a genderless term that we would call each other when we worked at PEARL - a long gone but not forgotten Hackney Wick institution. 

The term (although used frequently in London slang) was picked up after one of our regulars, Michael, began to call our team members "Big Man" rather than learn everyone's name. Michael was a lovely chap who would come by every day and order a Latte with two sugars mixed into the espresso. He's a well known and beloved character of the Wick.

It seemed fitting to name these beans after him, you can put your two sugars in and still taste those big bold coffee flavours.
