kinini is a natural-process bourbon from rwanda, produced by the roasting shed at hackney bridge. natural processing, where the cherry dries around the bean, gives it a winey body alongside bright citrus character. expect lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest up front, with jasmine and broader floral notes running underneath. the winey quality makes it well suited to filter brewing, where slower extraction lets the fruit and florals develop clearly without turning heavy. a medium-coarse grind and water around 93c works well for pour-over or batch brew.
