It turns out that to capture the true taste of freshly roasted coffee in a liqueur, youve got to master a complex balancing act of roasting, blending & brewing that takes no prisoners. One wrong move, one shortcut, & the taste is compromised. So, Conker took their sweet time & after a year of tweaking & sipping their way through 96 recipes, they discovered some subtle tricks & a blend that surpassed all expectations A complex, dark & fruity brew that celebrates the espresso & owns the glass. Working with Dorsets very own Beanpress Coffee Co., they selected the very best speciality Brazilian & Ethiopian coffee beans that blow your usual ground coffee out the water. The Brazilian is roasted darker & longer to accentuate the cacao & caramel notes, bringing a robust coffee flavour that provides the backbone to the spirit. The Ethiopian coffee is roasted faster & lighter to accentuate the sweetness & natural citrus character, so adding a zesty highlight to the blend. ...
