tropical splash is a light roast colombian coffee from acoustic java roastery & tasting room, grown on pink bourbon and bourbon varietals and processed naturally. the natural process, where the fruit dries around the bean, drives the winey, tropical fruit character alongside brighter citrus notes of lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest. because it's roasted light, the origin flavors stay intact and forward. it rewards brewing methods that highlight clarity and sweetness, pour over or aeropress work well here, using water around 90-93°c to avoid muting the citrus brightness or pushing the winey notes into muddiness.

common questions

What does Tropical Splash taste like?

tropical splash leads with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, then opens into tropical fruit and a winey quality that comes from the natural processing. the light roast keeps those flavors clean and pronounced rather than roasted or bitter.

How is Tropical Splash grown and processed?

it's a colombian coffee grown using pink bourbon and bourbon varietals, both known for good sweetness and complexity. it's processed naturally, meaning the whole coffee cherry dries with the fruit still on, which contributes the winey and tropical fruit character in the cup.

How should I brew Tropical Splash?

as a light roast, tropical splash does best with brew methods that preserve delicate flavors, pour over or aeropress are good fits. use water just off full boil, around 90-93°c, and a medium-fine grind to bring out the citrus and fruit without over-extracting into bitterness.
