ethiopia + brazil coffee
by lilo coffee roasters · osaka, japan
you'll taste blueberry before milk chocolate. this is 【seasonal blend 2026】june | kagome blend (籠目), an anaerobic ethiopia + brazil from lilo coffee roasters.
the kagome blend offers blueberry alongside milk chocolate and dark chocolate, a profile shaped by its anaerobic processing. the light roast keeps those flavors distinct rather than folding them into roasty bitterness.
it is a blend of ethiopian and brazilian coffees, both processed anaerobically, meaning the beans ferment in sealed, oxygen-free tanks before drying. this method intensifies fruit and chocolate characteristics in the cup.
as a light-roasted blend, it responds well to brew methods that emphasize clarity, such as pour-over or aeropress. use a medium-fine grind and slightly lower water temperature, around 90-93°c, to preserve the blueberry and chocolate notes without extracting harshness.
