Cafédirect Cauca Terroir Roast & Ground Coffee pairs well with something cheesy (savoury) or something sweet, or even meaty with caramelised BBQ flavours. Cheese and nuts goes well together for a earthy, savoury notes of both and the contrasting smooth mouth-feel of the cheese and the drier finish of the nuts. Cafédirect Cauca Terroir Roast & Ground Coffee has a similar representation with a smooth, juicy, creamy body reminiscent of a soft cheese, with a drier, nutty finish. A popular snack consumed by the colombians is the Pan de queso in Spanish (cheese bread), which is also a traditional pairing with Cauca coffee. Whereas, the sweetness of a dessert or the flavour of Caramel contrast really well with the acidity of the coffee.
