senaida chilcon is a washed peruvian coffee from cajamarca, roasted by bench coffee co. roastery. grown with caturra and bourbon varieties, the washed process strips away the fruit skin and pulp before drying, which tends to produce a clean, clear cup. expect raisin sweetness alongside milk chocolate and darker cocoa tones. the relatively gentle, defined flavor profile makes it well-suited to filter brewing, where the clean washed processing can express itself without interference. a medium grind, water around 93 celsius, and a slow pour-over or batch brew approach will let the chocolate and dried-fruit character come through consistently.

about bench coffee co. roastery
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.
