ruli 1504 is a washed bourbon from the gakenke region of rwanda, selected as a cup of excellence lot and roasted by passage coffee as part of their soil project. the washed process keeps the cup clean and precise, letting the bourbon varietal express red apple, stone fruit, and a distinct black tea quality that lingers into a tea-like finish. it suits filter brewing, where lower brew temperatures and a slower pour will preserve the delicate fruit and tea character without pushing bitterness. a good choice if you favor elegant, structured african washed coffees with restrained sweetness.

about passage coffee

you're on shiba's quieter back streets in minato, where the office blocks thin out and the foot traffic slows to something more human. passage coffee sits here, a specialty roaster doing its own thing in a neighborhood that doesn't particularly cater to tourists. if you're coming from shibaura or cutting through from mita, it's a detour worth making. the local following is real and consistent, which in tokyo's densely competitive specialty scene means something. roasting in-house puts the sourcing decisions directly in the hands of the people making your cup, so there's no middleman softening the edges of what ends up in your glass. mornings are a good bet, before the lunch crowd shifts the rhythm of shiba's streets entirely.
