status: in stock

zinule #1 is a washed sl-28 from uganda, roasted by fountain rock coffee roasters. sl-28 is a varietal more commonly associated with kenya, so finding it in uganda is relatively uncommon and worth paying attention to. the washed process removes the fruit before drying, which keeps the cup clean and lets the bean's inherent character come through. expect caramel sweetness with the clarity that washed coffees typically deliver. it suits filter brewing well, where a slower extraction can highlight that sweetness without muddying it. keep your water around 93-96°c and aim for a medium-fine grind if you're pouring by hand.

about fountain rock coffee roasters

some places just get it right from the start. fountain rock coffee roasters sits on albany road in weymouth's granby industrial estate, turning what could be an unremarkable location into something worth seeking out. the 118 google reviews all singing the same tune tell you everything. five stars across the board. walk into most chain spots and you smell cleaning products mixed with burnt beans. here you catch the sweet crack of beans hitting their peak, that moment when oils start surfacing and sugars caramelize. the roasting happens on-site, which means your cup tastes like coffee, not like it's been sitting in a warehouse for months. regulars don't just come back for convenience. they come back because someone here cares about what goes into that cup. the difference between good coffee and great coffee often comes down to those small choices. the timing. the temperature. the respect for the bean itself.
