Panama “Sieta Dias de Bellota’

Panama "Sieta Dias de Bellota" Bottomless Extraction
I absolutely adore coffees from Panama, they are intense! The “Sieta Dias de Bellota” has left me with just that, a week of wonderfully beautiful coffee.
This coffee carries itself very well at a Full City. When iced the explosion of fruit and slight chocolate is amazing! I tasted fig, mango, even apricot. Was just deliciously smooth. Hot it lends itself more to the fig side, but still quite enjoyable. I wanted to bring out more of the chocolate notes and brought a second batch to a Vienna. While it lost a lot of the fruit notes I saw having it iced, the Hershey chocolate notes was well worth it. Straight espresso had an intense chocolate aroma, and held a nice slight fig after taste. Reminded me of Italian cookies dipped in chocolate.
On a side note, I need to work on getting better light in my espresso station’s corner for photos. I love bottomless extraction photography. The way the espresso can twist and stripe as it’s pulled amazes me. Ah, physics!
