Siren Project: Barista Bourbon Turkish

The original Turkish brew was inspired by Turkey’s robust coffee and included not only vanilla, orange zest, nutmeg, figs, cacao and muscavado but also 45kg of Thai coffee. Before barrel ageing, the brewery added more nutmeg, summer orange zest and coffee. After 18 months sat in second use barrels they’re adding Ecuadorian Gonzalo Gaona coffee in the form of a rich espresso, brewed by Redemption Roasters, to maintain big coffee flavours. This is a rich, unctuous and hedonistic coffee beer with a lot going on.
