Description
“This coffee is delicate and balanced with a perfume driven aroma of orange and tropicals. A complex acidity dances on the palate, with a silky mouthfeel, and a short finish. It’s extremely harmonious and best enjoyed without additives. A natural sweetness brings balance to the initial acidity, and the overall cup is extremely pleasant and terroir driven. This coffee performs beautifully on filter methods, highlighting balance; but can also perform as a robust espresso tasting of peach, lime, and steeped lemon tea.”

— Conor Conway, Co-Founder and Director of Coffee

BREW GUIDE

Brewing tips from the roaster:

For filter: 18g of coffee, 290ml of water, 96°C. Start with a 60g bloom pouring over 7 seconds. At 0m30s, pour 100ml of water over 10 seconds. At 1m05s, pour 75ml of water over 10 seconds. Finally, at 1m35s, pour the remaining 55ml over 7 seconds to finish the extraction. Personally, I enjoy a slight agitation near the end of my extraction to slow down the flow right on this coffee which can be quite quick. Aim for total extraction time of 2m45s. 

For espresso: 19.5g in, 38g out, 28 seconds.
