Peaberry is the name of a physical trait of the coffee bean. Peaberry beans often grow on the ends of the coffee tree branches and are characterized by their round shape, as opposed to the flat face of the regular bean. An estimated 5% of all coffee beans are peaberry type. Cherries containing peaberry types yield only one bean, versus a two bean yield in the regular type. Peaberry coffee beans are also slightly smaller than the regular ones and possibly denser than the latter. The rarity of this bean type, its distinct quality and round shape (this favors a more even roasting) makes peaberry coffee a special and uncommon coffee experience. Those that enjoy peaberry roasts speak of its sweetness, bright acid notes and complex tastes in cup.
At Café Don Luis, this unique bean trait comes together with their notable zeal and care for the entire coffee production process to bring you an exceptional experience of a first grade artisan coffee.
