Evin Moreno, Honduras (Washed)

evin moreno is a washed honduran coffee roasted by mission coffee works. the washed process strips the cherry before drying, which tends to highlight the bean's inherent character rather than adding fermentation complexity. in the cup it leans toward the delicate and fruit-forward side, with blackcurrant and stone fruit sitting alongside a pronounced black tea quality that makes it feel clean and defined. that tea-like structure means it responds well to brew methods that reward clarity, such as a v60 or chemex. keep your water temperature moderate and your grind on the finer side of medium to let the fruit and tea notes come through without turning sharp.
