expect stone fruit. this is 【in the coffee kyoto】紅艶果香 / berry elegance, a washed ethiopia + rwanda + colombia from lilo coffee roasters.
the roaster describes stone fruit as the core tasting note, suggesting flavors along the lines of peach, plum, or apricot. the washed process across all three origins keeps the cup clean and lets that fruit character come through without fermented or heavy fruit sweetness.
it is a blend of coffees from ethiopia, rwanda, and colombia, all grown on the caturra varietal and processed using the washed method. washed processing removes the fruit skin and mucilage before drying, which typically produces a cleaner, brighter cup.
as a light roast, it suits brewing methods with precise water temperature control, such as pour-over or aeropress, which will highlight its stone fruit notes without over-extracting. a brew temperature around 90 to 93 degrees celsius is a reasonable starting point given the light roast level.
