burundi coffee
by the bean cartel coffee roasters · melbourne, australia
you'll taste stone fruit before baking spice. this is burundi - masasu hill, a burundi from the bean cartel coffee roasters.
it leads with stone fruit, think plum or peach-like sweetness, then moves into baking spice and a broader spice character that adds warmth and complexity to the cup.
this coffee comes from masasu hill in burundi, though no specific processing method or altitude details have been provided beyond its single-origin burundi origin.
filter methods like pour over or drip brewing work well here, as they tend to highlight the stone fruit and spice notes clearly, use a medium-coarse grind and water around 93 to 96 degrees celsius as a starting point.
good coffee in a city this serious about it doesn't survive on location alone. the bean cartel coffee roasters sits out in notting hill, duerdin street, which is not a café strip or a postcode people romanticise, and yet people keep coming back. that's not nothing. as a specialty roaster, the focus is on the beans themselves, the sourcing decisions, the roast profiles, the gap between what coffee could taste like and what it usually does. you don't end up at unit 5 by accident, you end up there because someone pointed you toward it for a reason. the regulars here are regulars for a reason too, and that loyalty in melbourne, where the options are genuinely endless, means something concrete. start with a filter if you want to understand what they're doing with the roasts.
