Deeper Roots Maputo Grand Cru Coffee
Based in Cincinnati, OH, Deeper Roots has quickly become one of the best sources for specialty coffee beans in the country. They partner with small coffee farmers from around the world to improve their quality of life and pass on the coffee they produce. Maputo is a great example, sourced from La Perla, Nanegal, located in the region northwest of the Pichincha Province in Ecuador. The high humidity combined with a blanket of mist that covers the field in the afternoons and significant temperature drops at night creates a microclimate that produces some of the best coffee on earth. Named for the main farm these beans were sourced from, Maputo is a washed coffee that is balanced and bright, with notes of sweet tropical fruit alongside a layered hazelnut flavor.
