Sabana Café
This American Porter celebrates its Colombian heritage by integrating premium organic coffee with a robust base of Pilsen malt and specialty grains. It presents a deep, dark brown pour with striking garnet highlights and a persistent tan head. The sensory experience is dominated by the intense, aromatic profile of freshly roasted coffee and dark chocolate, backed by a subtle malty richness and light caramel notes. On the palate, the roast character is moderately strong but smooth, balanced by a medium-high bitterness that leads to a dry, lingering finish. The coffee’s character provides a unique identity, harmonizing with earthy hop undertones and a clean fermentation profile.
Appearance. Dark brown to near-black (30–38 SRM) with prominent ruby and garnet highlights. Features a full, tan-colored head with moderately good retention and light lacing; clear where light penetrates.
Aroma. High intensity of roasted organic coffee and dark chocolate. Moderate malt richness with background notes of caramel and toast. Low earthy hop character. Clean fermentation with negligible fruity esters and no acrid or acidic sharpness.
Taste. Moderately strong roasted flavor featuring premium coffee, dark chocolate, and a lightly burnt malt character from the specialty grains. Medium-high bitterness provides a firm balance to the initial malty sweetness. Low earthy hop flavor. The finish is dry and clean with a lingering roasted aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, slightly creamy texture. Moderate carbonation. Subtle, well-integrated alcohol warmth at 5.9% ABV. Very low dark malt astringency that does not detract from the drinkability.
