Caturra on Specialty Coffee Journey

Lacava Peru Ihuamaca

Tue, 24 Feb 2026 00:00:00 +0000

A typical Lacava all-rounder, perfectly suitable for work.

Lacava Colombia El Diviso

This one is a very comfortable all-rounder that I’d recommend to anyone willing to sip their daily coffee while doing something else, like working or reading. Lacava doesn’t disappoint, and the price is appropriate for the quality it offers.

Gringo Colombia Honey Lulo

Although the bag suggests the roastery is very serious about their craft, I couldn’t say it was an enjoyable experience. The experimental processing method (fermenting with the lulo fruit) might have introduced non-coffee-specific flavors, which I consider a downside.

Lesson learned about “omniroast”: too dark for filter, too light for espresso. You should probably choose coffee tailored to your specific expectations.

Kaffa Nicaragua Fruity & Floral

The color of the label perfectly captures the coffee’s character. It’s sweet with a hint of sourness — ideal for someone with an adventurous palate.

Lacava Guatemala La Maravilla

I have mixed feelings about this AI-generated art with obvious Van Gogh in the prompt. The coffee itself was decent, though. Lacava does not disappoint.

Kawepale Nepal Indrawati

Sun, 10 Mar 2024 00:00:00 +0000

I had the pleasure of meeting the roaster when I bought this bag. It’s always great to meet a fellow coffee enthusiast. Although I was intrigued by the story of Nepalese monks processing the coffee using goat milk, the taste was rather unoriginal. Never trust those self-awarded SCA points on the bag.

Pikola Colombia Rodrigo Sanchez

Wed, 21 Jun 2023 00:00:00 +0000

This coffee tastes (and looks!) almost exactly like a rum praline. Generally, I’m not a fan of alcohol notes, but in this case, they’re bold and harmonize perfectly with the other flavors. Non-coffee notes resulting from experimental processing are evident, though.
