We have a bit of a habit… When an amazing coffee lands on our cupping table, we buy it… even if we technically don’t have room for it. Luckily, we’re pretty good at making room. Variants are one of our favorite ways to do that. So, with that confession out of the way, meet Mayor – Laos: the sibling to our regular Mayor, but from a whole new origin. This was our first time buying coffee from Laos, and honestly, it felt like a “where have you been all our lives?” kind of moment.
Mayor – Laos comes from the Champasak region of the Bolaven Plateau. With high altitudes, rich volcanic soil, and abundant groundwater, the terroir is nearly perfect for producing high-quality arabica. As always with Mayor, this lot is a washed Catigua varietal. In the cup, expect notes of Bosc pear, Glosette, and brown sugar. A cozy trio that makes this the perfect brew for the coldest, darkest months of the year.
We hope you love our new take on Mayor as much as we do. We’ll be sipping it all winter long.
