wave specialty blend is a light roast blend sourced from guatemala and honduras, processed naturally, meaning the coffee cherries are dried whole before milling. that processing choice tends to produce a sweeter, fruit-forward cup, and here it shows up as brown sugar sweetness alongside milk chocolate and dark chocolate tones. the result is a dessert-leaning coffee that is approachable but not flat. because it is a light roast, brewing methods that highlight sweetness and body work well, such as pour over or french press. keep water temperature around 90-94°c to avoid muting the chocolate notes or over-extracting the natural fruit sugars.
