Brazil Pocos de Caldas

Processing: Natural
Owner: Various farms in the Poços de Caldas region
Sweet and full bodied with notes of dark chocolate, cherry and roast almonds.
This coffee is a blend made up of naturally processed coffees from several farms in Brazil’s Poços de Caldas region. Located in the south-west of Minas Gerais state, close to the border with São Paulo state, Poços de Caldas is a very fertile area whose green hills are scattered with coffee farms. It enjoys a mild, temperate climate and an average altitude of 1000m and above.
This blend is prepared by our friends at Bourbon Specialty Coffee. The cherries used for the blend were processed using the natural method – meaning that they were picked and then dried with the fruit of the cherry still attached.
Indonesian Sumatran Mandheling – Blue Batak Tiger
These Sumatran beans benefit from a higher altitude that produces a brightness in the cup and complexities unique to this region. Sweet syrupy characters, good cup qualities and great complexities are prominent. Blue-green colour. Screen size 16/18.

This one is $10 more, but the coffees sound like they line up better with my preferences. I drink flat whites, and prefer smooth caramel/chocolate notes, but full bodied.
Any advice? :)
