Bonanza Coffee Roasters: Berlin Pioneer of Third Wave Coffee
The specialty coffee roaster Bonanza Coffee Roasters from the German capital Berlin is a Third Wave Coffee Bar of the extra class. The two founders, Yumi Choi and Kiduk Reus, were among the first to deal with the so-called Third Wave Coffee. Since then they have been roasting and serving coffee and developing barista techniques together with their team and a great deal of passion.
In their not-so-secret coffee oasis in Berlin, the roasting plant refines coffee week after week, allowing deep insights into the roasting process. Coffee connoisseurs can look through a glass wall and see how the finest coffee specialties are made from first-class raw beans.
The motto in Berlin is "Live the coffee!"
What you can find with Bonanza is transparency, dedication to the product, attention to detail and true skill. You can taste this in every bean from the Berlin coffee roastery. In addition, the coffee experts from Berlin take part in championships, train and advise their customers. Bonanza roasts its green coffee only as long as necessary. The variety of aromas should be brought out, no more and no less.
Brazil: Jaguara #5 by Bonanza Coffee Roasters, Berlin
The unique flavor profile that Andre Garcia and his family produce at Jaguara is outstanding. This is the second lot Bonanza purchased from Jaguara this season, offering more bright and tropical notes. Andre dries the coffee cherries incredibly slow on innovative drier boxes, which provokes a small but controlled fermentation. This slow maturation allows for a wonderfully sweet and complex coffee.
