At Kiss the Hippo, we meticulously determine taste profiles by tasting thousands of coffees annually to discover unique expressions of specialty coffee. Our roasting team focuses on the individuality of each bean, crafting roast profiles that showcase its distinct characteristics. We roast to a light profile, preserving the coffee&apos;s inherent terroir and provenance. Using the SCA Flavour Wheel, we identify specific tasting notes and translate them into relatable coffee experiences. We also carefully consider how different processing methods influence the final taste.

We taste thousands of coffees each year, crafting light roast profiles to highlight unique flavours. Notes are identified using the SCA Flavour Wheel.
