big bloom is a limited edition light roast from kribi coffee in albion, blending beans from ethiopia and kenya. both origins are processed naturally, meaning the coffee cherries dry whole before milling, which pulls fruit-forward sweetness into the cup. expect bright citrus across lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, with jasmine and broader floral tones underneath. because it's a light roast, lower brew temperatures around 88 to 92 celsius and a slower pour will keep the acidity clean and the floral notes clear. filter methods like pour-over or aeropress suit it well, preserving the delicate top notes without bitterness.
