walking wires is a bourbon varietal from burundi, processed anaerobically by dark arts coffee. anaerobic processing, where the coffee ferments in a sealed, oxygen-deprived environment, pushes the natural fruit sugars of the bourbon variety into pronounced stone fruit and winey characteristics. expect a cup that leans ripe and fruit-forward with some ferment complexity. because of that intensity, it responds well to brew methods that give you control over extraction, filter brewing at a slightly lower temperature will keep the fruit clean, while espresso will amplify the winey depth. dial in carefully to avoid over-extraction muddying the fruit.
