rwanda + brazil coffee
by missing bean abingdon · abingdon, uk
you'll taste raisin before honey. this is can we talk? - mb x oufc, a honey rwanda + brazil from missing bean abingdon.
the tasting notes are raisin, honey, and honeycomb, pointing to a sweet, syrupy cup with dried-fruit depth. honey processing on both origins reinforces that sweetness rather than adding brightness or sharp acidity.
the coffee is a blend of bourbon-varietal beans from rwanda and brazil, both processed using the honey method. honey processing means the cherry skin is removed but some of the sticky fruit mucilage is left on the bean as it dries, contributing to its sweetness and body.
the honey process and bourbon varietal give this coffee enough body and sweetness to work across brew methods, from filter to espresso. filter brewing will highlight the raisin and honeycomb notes clearly, while espresso will concentrate the syrupy sweetness.
you're on stert street, a short walk from abingdon's market place, and missing bean is right there at number one. abingdon is a small oxfordshire town that doesn't get a lot of coffee pilgrimage traffic, which means the people who end up here tend to actually want to be here. missing bean roasts its own coffee, so what you're drinking hasn't passed through a long chain of middlemen before it reaches your cup. the regulars are notably loyal, which, in a town this size, means something. if you're passing through on a weekday morning, stert street is quiet enough that you can actually think, and a well-pulled espresso from a roaster that knows its own beans is a reasonable way to start.
