patrick's blend from sterling coffee roasters combines washed bourbon lots from rwanda and colombia into a single, consistent blend. the washed process keeps things clean and structured, letting the cocoa character come through clearly, with milk chocolate in the cup softening into darker, more bitter chocolate at the finish. because both origins are processed the same way, the blend is cohesive rather than contrasting. it suits filter brewing well, where the clean cup transparency highlights that chocolate range, though it will also hold its own as espresso for anyone who prefers a straightforward, chocolate-forward shot without fruity distraction.
