can we talk? is a collaboration between missing bean botley and oufc, blending honey-processed bourbon from rwanda and brazil. honey processing leaves some fruit mucilage on the bean during drying, which pulls sweetness into the cup, showing up here as raisin, honey, and honeycomb. the blend balances rwandan brightness with brazilian body. it suits filter methods that let sweetness come forward, so a v60 or batch brew at around 93c works well. grind medium-fine and keep ratios around 1:15 to 1:16 to avoid masking the softer fruit tones with over-extraction.
