natural selection is a seasonal blend from carrara coffee roasters, drawing bourbon-varietal beans from burundi and the rwenzori region of uganda. both lots are natural processed, meaning the fruit dries around the bean, which pulls through in the cup as bright citrus, lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest alongside jasmine, floral character, and a clean black tea finish. the tea-like quality makes it gentle enough for filter brewing, where lower brew temperatures and a medium-coarse grind will keep the florals clear and the citrus sharp without tipping into astringency.
