sanctuary light is a washed caturra from peru, roasted by redroaster on st james's street. the washed process strips away the fruit skin and pulp before drying, which tends to produce a cleaner, more defined cup. here that reads as milk chocolate and dark chocolate, sitting together in a way that feels straightforward and comforting rather than complex. it suits filter brewing well, where the clean processing lets those chocolate tones come through without interference. grind medium, use water around 93c, and keep the ratio around 1:15 to 1:16 to avoid pushing the darker notes into bitterness.
