kindred spirit is a honey-processed brazil from the mogiana region, roasted by alfie & co coffee roasters. honey processing leaves some fruit mucilage on the bean during drying, which tends to push sweetness and body forward. in the cup you get honey, honeycomb, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate, making it a soft, sweet, dessert-leaning coffee without sharp acidity. it suits brewing methods that highlight body and sweetness, such as espresso, french press, or moka pot. keep grind size and water temperature consistent to let the chocolate and honey tones come through cleanly rather than tipping into bitterness.

common questions

What does KINDRED SPIRIT taste like?

kindred spirit cups with honey, honeycomb, milk chocolate, and dark chocolate, sitting on the sweeter, fuller-bodied end of the spectrum. there is no sharp fruit acidity, just a smooth, dessert-like sweetness that carries through to the finish.

How is KINDRED SPIRIT grown and processed?

the coffee comes from the mogiana region of brazil and is honey processed, meaning the cherry skin is removed but some of the sticky fruit mucilage is left on the bean while it dries. this adds sweetness and body compared to a washed coffee from the same origin.

How should I brew KINDRED SPIRIT?

brewing methods that emphasise body and sweetness, such as espresso, french press, or moka pot, will suit this coffee well. avoid over-extraction by dialling in grind size carefully, as the chocolate notes can tip bitter if brewed too fine or too hot.
