lilac dream is a washed burundian coffee roasted by phil & sebastian coffee roasters at their mission location. the washed process strips away the fruit before drying, which tends to produce a cleaner cup, and that shows here in flavors that lean delicate and aromatic rather than heavy. expect stone fruit and jasmine up front, with a floral character and a dry, tea-like finish that recalls black tea. because the flavors are subtle and layered, brew methods that highlight clarity work well, such as pour-over or aeropress with a medium-fine grind and water around 93, 94 degrees celsius.
