common questions
What does Buds: A Spring Blend taste like?
the cup leads with jasmine and floral notes, backed by caramel, brown sugar, honey, and honeycomb, reflecting the sweetness that honey processing tends to bring out in pink bourbon and bourbon varietals.
How is Buds: A Spring Blend grown and processed?
the blend uses pink bourbon and bourbon varietals from rwanda's nyamasheke region and colombia, both processed using the honey method, which retains some fruit mucilage on the bean during drying to build sweetness and body.
How should I brew Buds: A Spring Blend?
a filter or pour-over brew works well here, using a medium-fine grind and water around 93c to bring out the floral and caramel notes without flattening them through over-extraction.
