A Clover Reserve Starbucks - Starbucks Reserve® Colombia El Peñol

     On November 1, I found that Starbucks released 100 kinds of holiday drink wears, and I thought I should look their holiday collections at the store. That's why my husband and I went to the nearest Clover Reserve Starbucks. Soon after that, I noticed that those were currently only available on their online store. Therefore, there was no new mugs or tumblers. Many drink wears were on sale though. :)  Another reason why we went there was that we wanted to try Starbucks Reserve Jamaica Blue Mountain because we missed it last time. However, it was also sold out. Wow, how popular it was! We ended up trying Starbucks Reserve Colombia El Peñol this time.

Cultivated and processed by 160 smallholder farmers near La Piedra del Peñol, a 722-foot high rock revered by locals in the towns of El Peñol and Guatapé, the beans are combined and dried at a central mill. The consistently high-quality beans, nurtured at high altitudes by dedicated farmers, help ensure excellence in the cup and a viable future for all.

Producer: Cooperative de Calficultores de Antioquiain in Northwest Colombia
Elevation: 5,940-6,930 feet (1800-2100 meters)
Coffee Variety: Castillo, Caturra and Variedad Colombia
Processing Method: Washed

       It was pretty cold that day because it rained a lot previous night. I thought that finally autumn comes. It was perfect hot reserve coffee with a crisp autumn day. The coffee tasted pretty bold and bitter which we liked. The coffee aroma was also as good as always. We enjoyed our coffee time.
