this is a washed bourbon from kayanza, burundi, roasted by buddy brew coffee in connection with the kibira forest reforestation project. kayanza is one of burundi's most respected coffee-growing regions, and the washed process keeps the cup clean and fruit-forward. expect blueberry upfront, which settles into milk chocolate and dark chocolate as it cools. because the processing is clean and the fruit character is well-defined, this coffee works well as a filter brew, where those layers have room to open up. use a medium-fine grind, water around 93c, and a moderate pour rate to keep the blueberry bright without pushing any bitterness from the darker chocolate notes.
