peru coffee
by bench coffee co. roastery · brunswick, australia
you'll taste winey before black tea. this is lenin flores, peru, a washed peru from bench coffee co. roastery.
it has winey, grape-like qualities alongside a dry, tea-like character that reads closer to black tea than a fruit-forward or chocolatey cup. the overall profile is delicate and structured rather than bold or sweet.
it is grown in the cajamarca region of peru using caturra and bourbon varietals, and processed using the washed method, which removes the fruit before drying to produce a cleaner, more defined cup.
a filter or pour-over brew method suits this coffee well, as the lighter body and tea-like qualities benefit from a clean, transparent extraction rather than pressure-based methods like espresso.
a roastery that actually roasts, on breese street in brunswick, is rarer than it sounds. plenty of places in this city call themselves roasters and mean it loosely. bench coffee co. takes it literally, which means what's in your cup was probably turned here, on this street, not shipped in finished from somewhere else and quietly rebranded. brunswick makes sense for it, a suburb that's been quietly serious about food and coffee longer than most people give it credit for. the regulars who keep coming back aren't doing it out of habit or proximity alone. if you're in the area on a weekday morning, breese street is worth the detour.
