Typica & Bourbon

typica and bourbon from cumbé is a honey-processed coffee grown in guerrero, mexico. the two varietals, bourbon and typica, are both older arabica cultivars known for clean, straightforward sweetness. honey processing, where some fruit mucilage is left on the bean during drying, reinforces that sweetness, which shows up here as honey and honeycomb in the cup. the result is a coffee that leans mild and sweet rather than sharp or fruity. it suits filter methods well, where the clean sweetness can come through without being masked, though a gentle espresso or moka pot will also work if you keep extraction on the shorter side.
