golden hour roast is a honey-processed blend from colombia and brazil, roasted by buddy brew coffee. honey processing leaves some fruit mucilage on the bean during drying, which tends to soften acidity and add body compared to washed coffees. in the cup it leads with bright citrus, lemon and grapefruit, then settles into honey and honeycomb sweetness with a lingering citrus zest finish. it suits pour-over or drip brewing, where the clean extraction highlights those citrus top notes without muddying the delicate sweetness. a medium grind, water around 200°f, and a 1:15 coffee-to-water ratio is a solid starting point.

common questions

How is Golden Hour Roast grown and processed?

the coffee comes from colombia and brazil and is processed using the honey method, meaning the beans are dried with some of the fruit's mucilage still attached, which contributes to its sweetness and body.

How should I brew Golden Hour Roast?

pour-over or drip methods work well here, as they let the citrus brightness and honeycomb sweetness come through clearly. start with a medium grind, water around 200°f, and a 1:15 coffee-to-water ratio, then adjust to taste.
