bourbon barrel reserve is a nicaraguan coffee from snowy elk coffee company, made with the bourbon varietal and processed naturally, meaning the cherries dry whole before milling. that processing choice pushes fruit sugars into the bean, which shows up in the cup as caramel sweetness layered with baking spice and a warm spiced finish. because natural coffees carry heavier body and sweeter, more complex flavors, this one does well in brew methods that let those qualities develop fully, like a french press, pour over with a longer draw-down, or espresso where the caramel notes can concentrate.
