Mellow, round, caffeine-free

El Salvador – Espresso

New at Karlova: a soft, sweet El Salvador to come back to when you've had enough of acidic Africans, "a landing in a pile of feathers". For espresso machines; fans of a heavier cup can use French press or cup brewing. Its wine parallel, they say, is Amarone.

EspressoEl Salvador

Full-bodied, honeycomb, soft as a feather pillow

Ethiopia – Light Roast

A coffee Karlova say may change how you think about coffee: white rose in the aroma and refreshing fruit in the cup, somewhere between tea, coffee and juice. Best black and good cooled; for Kalita, AeroPress, V60 or cup brewing.

Fresh, fruity, white rose

Honduras – Espresso
