About
ABOUT
Telila Washing Station makes its triumphant return to Red Brick, alongside the classic, Puente TarrazĂș! Sweet stone fruit notes mingle with caramel and chocolate depth to bring a pleasant twist to our house espresso blend.
Costa Ricaâs Puente TarrazĂș continues to impress with its foundational, caramel flavours and almond-butter-like texture. One of the first micromills in the TarrazĂș region, Puenteâs white honey lots have been a cornerstone of the Red Brick blend for over a decade. This year, a new generation came into Puenteâs leadership with Dinnier Naranjo, alongside Mainor Rivera. We were pleased to host Dinnier in London at last yearâs Costa Rica Producer Visit. The coming years will be an exciting time for a longstanding relationship!
Telila of Gera, Jimma has become an outstanding collaborator for us in all things Ethiopia. We built this Red Brick component with lots whose producers come from the Kolla and Genji Challa kebeles. Last season also marked the opening of Telilaâs second washing station site at Atoma. Concurrent with this growth, they deliver their usual impeccably detail-oriented washed coffees in a season wrought with shipping delays and quality issues in East Africa.
