burundi coffee
by bean & bean queens — roastery & cafe · new york city, usa
you'll taste jasmine before floral. this is burundi hafi bourbon natural, an experimental burundi from bean & bean queens — roastery & cafe.
the cup leads with jasmine and floral character, drawn out by the experimental natural process. expect sweetness alongside the florals, which is typical of naturally processed coffees.
it is grown in burundi using the bourbon varietal and processed through an experimental natural method, where the whole coffee cherry dries intact, allowing the fruit to influence the flavor of the bean.
pour-over or aeropress works well here, using water around 93°c and a medium-coarse grind to keep the floral notes clean and avoid muddying the cup.
