you'll taste stone fruit before peach. this is un071 - lamastus elida gn asd falda, geisha natural, an anaerobic panama from special guests.
it tastes of stone fruit and peach upfront, with a tea-like quality and black tea notes through the finish. the anaerobic natural process gives the fruit a pronounced depth while the gesha variety keeps the cup refined and clean.
it is a gesha variety grown in boquete, panama, on the lamastus family's elida estate. the coffee is processed using an anaerobic natural method, meaning the whole fruit ferments in a low-oxygen environment before drying, which intensifies the fruit character in the cup.
filter brewing methods suit this coffee well, as they highlight the delicate stone fruit, peach, and tea-like notes without overwhelming them. a controlled, even pour and clean water will help the more subtle tea character come through clearly.
you'll notice the room before the coffee: two metal counters, clean and deliberate, one pulling espresso and one devoted entirely to pour-over. paul ross, who won the uk barista championship in 2019 and spent years at origin, kiss the hippo and watchhouse, opened this aybrook street spot in 2022 with a filter menu that runs about twelve single origins at any time. rare panama geshas, experimental lots, coffees pulled from freezer archive for a second run. it's a serious place that doesn't feel serious. ross knows exactly what he's doing here.
