Day 17: The Fireplace Incident 🔥🐈
Kavoholik - Colombia Edwin Noreña Blueberry
I sat by the fireplace like an aristocrat.
Half a minute later, my tail started to smolder.
Pride burns worse than flame.
— Teodor, former salon cat, now with a "slightly smoked" aroma.
When it gets too hot, it's good to have something nice in your cup ☕
For Day 17, we have a coffee that effectively stirs emotions — even if the cat just tested the limits of physics and its own fur. Colombia, Edwin Norena and his distinctive approach to fermentation, meaning a coffee that doesn't pretend to be classic and clearly states from the start: it's going to be intense.
Blueberry Cofermented — controlled madness 🫐
This is a coffee where blueberry fruits are not a metaphor or a poetic suggestion. The co-fermentation process involves controlled fermentation of coffee with added fruits, resulting in deep, clean, and very precisely embedded aromas in the sensory profile. This is a style for which Edwin Norena is well-known.

Epilogue by the fireplace 🪵😼
The fireplace was a mistake.
This coffee — not.
The tail will grow back, so will the pride.
And the blueberry Colombia? It disappears from the cup far too quickly.
