bensa is a washed ethiopian coffee roasted by volcano coffee works. the washed process, which removes fruit before fermentation, keeps the cup clean and precise, letting the bean's natural character come through clearly. expect stone fruit and peach up front, jasmine and broader floral tones in the middle, and a finish that moves between milk and dark chocolate. that combination of bright fruit, delicate florals, and chocolate makes it well-suited to filter brewing, where clarity and sweetness can develop fully. keep your water around 92-94°c and use a medium-fine grind to avoid dulling the lighter notes.
