this is a washed caturra from costa rica, roasted by tunbridge wells coffee roastery. the washed process removes the fruit before drying, which tends to produce a clean, clear cup that lets the origin character come through without fermentation influence. caturra is a compact, high-yielding arabica variety common across central america. without additional tasting notes or roast level supplied, the best approach is to ask the roaster for current batch details, but a light to medium filter brew, such as v60 or chemex, will generally suit a washed central american well.

about tunbridge wells coffee roastery
a roastery in royal tunbridge wells isn't the obvious move, and that's part of why it works. most towns this size settle for someone else's beans, but tunbridge wells coffee roastery is where the roasting actually happens, which means what ends up in your cup hasn't been sitting in a warehouse or travelling through three middlemen first. the source is local, the process is the point, and you're closer to it here than you would be at almost any café in kent. mount pleasant road isn't a destination street in the way that, say, london's bermondsey is, but for anyone who takes green-to-roasted seriously, that's exactly where you want to be on a weekday morning.
