Roast Style: Progressive

These tend to be lighter bodied coffees, that forefront flavour nuances inherent to the specific bean. These coffees tend to have natural sweetness and distinctive aromatic properties.

As a general guide, they'll be great brewed using any filter method. We'd recommend trying them black.

Roaster's Notes

Elegant and perfumy, the secret to maximising these beloved attributes is keeping the roast time short. A high charge temperature to begin with and consistently increasing airflow maintains the thermal momentum of the beans throughout the roast. Once we reach a steady first crack, we cut gas entirely and allow the residual heat of the roaster to guide the profile forward. The brief development time amplifies the florality and delightful stone fruit complexities of this lot. With jammy tropical fruit notes and creamy texture, this coffee will appeal to anyone seeking a uniquely exceptional brewing experience.

COFFEE ORIGIN INFO

Sourced from over 500 smallholder farmers, this exquisite coffee was processed at the Buku Abel Washing Station in the Guji Zone. Founded in 2019, the local producers deliver their cherries to the washing station, where they are diligently sorted and processed. Their small-scale farms are between 0.5 to 2 hectares, with each hectare containing around 1800 - 2400 trees. Over the course of 18 to 21 days, this lot was sun-dried until the desired moisture content was achieved, resulting in a beautifully crafted, natural processed coffee.
