the kenya kamavindi aa natural is sourced from the embu region of kenya and processed using an anaerobic method, where cherries ferment in sealed, oxygen-free tanks before drying. this extended fermentation tends to concentrate fruit character and add depth to the cup. expect prominent stone fruit flavors, with the aa grade indicating larger, denser beans that tend to brew evenly. it suits filter methods well, where those fruit-forward qualities can open up cleanly. grind slightly coarser than espresso and use water around 92 to 94 degrees celsius to keep the sweetness balanced without pulling harsh notes.

about calico coffee
you notice the filter bar first, hand-built and low, the kind of thing someone who trained as an architect would obsess over. junchao jonny huang did exactly that before placing third at the 2023 uk brewers cup and opening calico on lower marsh near waterloo. dark wood, soft light, no wasted gestures. huang roasts some of the coffee himself, sources his own green, and still brings in guest roasters when it makes sense. every drink comes with an origin card. considered without being precious about it.
