Awake the Lion
There are not many real lions in Belgian Flanders except on the flags that come out of every home when the spring classics start. There is no stronger sign of royal perseverance than the yellow flag with the black lion and red tongue. Johan Museeuw is known for winning the most spring classics and the real lion king.
Tasting Notes
Our Leeuw van Vlaanderen coffee is a single origin coffee from Brazil. The coffee is natural processed what means that the coffee beans have been dried inside of the coffee berry. The beans receive flavor from the fruit pulp and sugars as part of their development. We roasted the Leeuw van Vlaanderen coffee beans medium dark to keep the flavor notes of the natural processed coffee. Next to the significant soft chocolate and crisp (wallnut) taste of brazilian coffee you will find notes of deep fruit (red berries) and a complex sweetness. The aroma of the coffee is sweet and has a creamy even silky mouthfeel. It finishes gently on a sweet note.
