expect grapefruit. this is say you're mine | espresso blend, a natural ethiopia + brazil from h proper coffee roasters - trinoma.
the listed tasting note is grapefruit, a citrus-forward character that comes through from the natural-processed ethiopian and brazilian beans. expect brightness with the fuller body typical of a medium roast.
the blend draws from ethiopia's guji region and brazil, with both components going through natural processing, meaning the whole coffee cherry is dried before the seed is removed. this method is known for producing fruit-forward, sweet cups.
it's blended and roasted specifically for espresso, so a standard espresso machine or stovetop moka pot will suit it best. if brewing filter, use a coarser grind and slightly lower water temperature to keep the grapefruit brightness from turning harsh.
