<\/p>\nAt Coffee Island, the art of coffee-making has been turned into a science. A science we love and respect. This is why we take care of each individual coffee bean and ensure that the best possible result is achieved.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Coffee for us is a journey. A journey that starts from picking the fruit and processing at the farms, until it arrives in our facilities in Patras. From roasting and taste testing until the time the roasted coffee beans enter the silos of our grindery, to the moment they reach your cup in the form of our favourite beverage.<\/p>\n
The journey is filled with pleasure\u2026<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u2026 and because we want to enjoy each moment to the fullest, we constantly check each sack the moment it arrives from the farms, when we store it and when it goes through the silos. The coffee is stored in special silos, in controlled humidity and temperature until the time comes for it to move to the roaster. We don\u2019t have to wait long. The coffee goes straight from the silos to the hopper, through a closed transportation system. This is how we manage to maintain the taste profile of our coffee unchanged.<\/p>\n

The journey is filled with aromas\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2026aromas from our favourite process. The process of Artisan Roasting! This is where we unfold the extent of our artistry to showcase all the particularities and unique characteristics of each variety. The enchanting image of coffee beans traveling from the silo to the state of the art roaster foreshadows the unique result and special taste that it will offer us.<\/p>\n
Artisan roasting requires continuous and complete control. The combination of art and technology, the experience of the Master Roaster and the control of the capabilities that are offered by the machinery. This is why, before we begin production, we test different roasting curves in special, small roasters, that allow us to test the flavor of each coffee and find the ideal recipe, the ideal curve that the temperature has to follow for each variety. This way, we are given the ability to adjust to the particularities of each variety.<\/p>\n

The journey is in the senses\u2026<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\u2026The senses of smell and taste. The cupping table for taste testing is already set. Hunched over our cups, we smell and note all the aromas we can detect from the freshly blended coffee, chocolate, caramel, fruit, citrus, flowers\u2026 The coffee is wetted and everything becomes more intense, the space is filled with aromas and the first\u2026 slurps are heard. A necessary process but at the same time pleasurable, so that the high quality and stability of the taste profile can be ensured consistently in each cup.<\/p>\n
The journey is the final impression\u2026<\/p>\n
\u2026this is why at the last stage of the production, the coffee us packaged in special bags with a backflow valve ensuring that the coffee beans don\u2019t come into contact with the air, so that they maintain their special flavor characteristics. From every batch, a sample is taken that goes through strict criteria, both for taste and quality. This is the last of the many checks we put our coffee through before we send it to its final destination\u2026 Coffee Island\u2019s coffee roasters.<\/p>\n
