Ineffable coffee roasters are an exciting speciality coffee roaster that are based in Seville, Spain. Although we usually review coffee that has been roasted in the UK rather than in Europe after speaking to the guys at Ineffable I could tell that they were up to something special and didn’t want to deprive people of their story. Ineffable coffee is made up of Omar, Jose and Alejandro, they have all returned to Seville after experiencing life in other cultures and now are trying to create a more speciality coffee culture in Spain. Spain’s coffee culture is an interesting one and different in every region of the country. While they don’t consume the quantities of coffee that many of its European neighbours do, they certainly do have coffee etched into their rituals and routines. Traditional coffee in Spain is much of the time torrefacto coffee, this means the coffee has been roasted with sugar. Although one would assume that this would make the coffee sweet it actually has the opposite effect as the sugar burns and coats the beans creating a bitter-tasting coffee. This dates back to the Spanish Civil war to preserve the coffee and add volume. Although there has been a couple of waves in the coffee industry since torrefacto coffee was new on the scene it still plays a role in the way Spaniards like their coffee and their appreciation for the more bitter-tasting coffee. Ineffable coffee are here to convey a new and unique and coffee experience. The coffee that they roast is always fairtrade and the relationships that they build from the farmer to the end consumer are long-lasting and transparent. Like any other fruit, coffee has seasons and harvests so the range of coffees that are available at any one time in constantly interchanging. Ineffable conveys this with their roasts, which regularly change. This is something that is bitter-sweet in the speciality coffee industry, as upsetting as it can be to find your favourite coffee from a particular roaster has finished it also makes it interesting and keeps the coffee menu fresh with new offerings. It also plays an important role in improving the quality of the coffee roaster as each green coffee has a unique roast profile.

What To Expect
The brewed coffee is fruit-forward, it perches on the front of your palate with notes of the fragrant plum alongside fizzy cola bottles. The coffee becomes layered with a pleasant acidity then almost tastes tangy towards the back of your mouth. It has a medium body and mouthfeel, the coffee ends smooth and leaves a slight chocolaty finish.
