library coffee's seasonal blend combines ethiopian and guatemalan beans, with the ethiopian component sourced from sidamo. both are washed processed, which strips away the fruit skin before drying and tends to produce cleaner, more defined cup flavors. expect stone fruit character alongside cocoa, a combination that sits somewhere between bright and grounding. washed coffees generally reward pour over and filter methods, where clarity of flavor comes through most clearly. grind medium-fine for pour over, use water around 93°c, and aim for a 1:15 to 1:16 coffee to water ratio to let the stone fruit and cocoa notes separate rather than merge into muddy sweetness.

common questions

What does Seasonal Blend taste like?

the blend is described as having stone fruit and cocoa flavors, a pairing that typically reads as a lightly sweet, fruit-forward cup with a darker, slightly bitter backdrop from the cocoa character.

How is Seasonal Blend grown and processed?

it draws from ethiopia, specifically the sidamo region, and guatemala, with both components washed processed, meaning the coffee cherry is removed before the beans are dried.

How should I brew Seasonal Blend?

washed coffees like this tend to perform well as filter or pour over brews, where the clean processing is reflected in a clearer, more defined cup rather than the heavier texture you'd get from espresso.
