At El Gato Coffee Roasters, we are always looking for coffees that offer unique flavor experiences. Our love of exploring the world of coffee has led us to one of the most fascinating botanicals – Tabi. If you are a coffee enthusiast, this unique variety is definitely worth getting to know.
History and Origin of Tabi
Tabi is a relatively new variety, created in Colombia by crossing Bourbon, Typica and the disease-resistant Timor Hybrid. The word “Tabi” comes from the language of the indigenous people of Colombia and means “composure" or "life”, which perfectly fits into the idea of conscious coffee cultivation and care for the environment. This variety has gained popularity thanks to its unusual combination of flavors and great agricultural parameters.
Tabi's Flavor Characteristics
The taste characteristics of Tabi are extremely complex and sophisticated. While tasting this coffee, you can feel the expressive notes of red fruits, such as raspberries and cherries, which are delicately intertwined with citrus notes and floral accents, often with noticeable orange. Its medium acidity combines with a velvety body, creating a cup of coffee that will satisfy both lovers of distinct, fruity aromas and those who value subtlety and balance. Drinking Tabi, you can feel the effect of 'wow' – many people describe it as something unique and surprising.
Resilience and benefits for farmers
Tabi is also interesting from a coffee production perspective. Its resistance to coffee rust (Hemileia vastatrix) makes it more farmer-friendly. Tabi grows at higher altitudes, which further affects its quality and complexity of flavor profile. By choosing coffees like Tabi, we support small producers who focus on quality and sustainability.
