nandi is a honey-processed kenyan coffee from rounton coffee. honey processing means the fruit is partially removed before drying, leaving some mucilage on the bean, which tends to add sweetness and body compared to a washed coffee. in the cup it leads with grapefruit brightness, moves through stone fruit, and finishes with honey and honeycomb sweetness. that combination of citrus sharpness and sticky sweetness makes it well suited to filter brewing, where clarity and sweetness can both come through cleanly. grind a little coarser if the grapefruit tips toward sharp.

about rounton coffee

the filter coffee here is worth planning around. rounton has been roasting out of east rounton, a quiet stretch of north yorkshire well outside any urban coffee circuit, long enough that their regulars treat the place less like a discovery and more like a given. that kind of quiet loyalty tends to mean something. if you're making the trip to northallerton, dl6 is not the most obvious postcode to find yourself in, but the people who do find it tend to come back. the roasting operation drives everything, so whatever's on the brew bar that week is probably the thing to order, not as a consolation for not getting espresso, but because it'll reflect exactly where their sourcing head is at. start with filter. end with filter, honestly.
