izuba is a honey-processed bourbon from kayanza, burundi, roasted by oddkin coffee roasters. kayanza sits in burundi's northern highlands, a region known for producing clean, fruit-forward lots. honey processing, which leaves some of the cherry's mucilage on the bean during drying, tends to bridge the gap between washed clarity and natural sweetness. in the cup, expect stone fruit and jasmine up front, with honey and honeycomb rounding out the finish. it suits filter brewing, where the floral and fruit notes can open up without distraction. keep your water around 92, 94°c and aim for a medium grind to avoid muddying the sweetness.
