common questions
What does HUYE MOUNTAIN taste like?
as a natural-processed bourbon and cup of excellence lot, expect concentrated fruit-forward sweetness, fuller body, and the clean, balanced structure that bourbon is known for. the natural process adds depth that sets it apart from lighter, washed rwandan coffees.
How is HUYE MOUNTAIN grown and processed?
it is a bourbon varietal grown in the huye region of rwanda and processed using the natural method, meaning the whole coffee cherry dried around the bean before milling. it was selected as a cup of excellence lot, indicating it scored among the top coffees evaluated in its harvest year.
How should I brew HUYE MOUNTAIN?
brew methods that complement its natural-process body and sweetness work well here, such as pour-over or french press. use water around 92-94°c, grind fresh, and allow a few weeks past the roast date for the flavors to settle.
