Marapi Gold is VERLO’s balanced flagship espresso: chocolate-led, naturally sweet, and lifted by a clean citrus note. It combines two Arabica components from West Sumatra using contrasting processing methods to create an espresso profile designed for broad hospitality appeal.
Blend Composition
- Arabica Lasi Marapi — Origin: Lasi, Agam, West Sumatra (Process: Natural Anaerobic)
- Arabica Bukik Gompong — Origin: Solok, West Sumatra (Process: Full Washed)
The natural-anaerobic Lasi component brings fruit sweetness and depth, while the washed Bukik Gompong component is intended to add structure and clarity. The result is VERLO’s most balanced and approachable espresso profile.
