In the cup

Expect notes of milk chocolate, caramel, and subtle florals. The acidity stays medium and balanced, giving brightness without sharpness. The body is smooth with a creamy mouthfeel that holds up across brewing methods. Ideal single origin.

These beans are excellent for both espresso and filter. As an espresso roast, they deliver round sweetness and stable crema. As a filter roast, they reveal gentle fruit sweetness and delicate floral undertones. The consistent bean size supports even roasting and predictable development.

Can you use Dimbulah as a base in your blend?

Yes, Dimbulah is a strong base bean
✔ Use it when you want balance and reliability
✔ Keep it between 40–60%
✔ Add Brazil for body, Colombia or Costa Rica for lift

When Dimbulah Should Not Be the Base.

Dimbulah may not suit as a base if:

• You want heavy chocolate intensity

• The blend targets very dark roasts

• Price sensitivity is critical

In these cases, Brazil natural may be a better base, with Dimbulah used at 20–30%.
