colombia + brazil coffee
by buddy brew coffee · tampa, usa
you'll taste lemon before grapefruit. this is golden hour roast, a honey colombia + brazil from buddy brew coffee.
expect lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest upfront, with honey and honeycomb sweetness rounding out the finish. the honey process gives the cup a slightly fuller body than a typical washed colombian or brazilian.
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.
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.
