white gold is a light-roasted natural bourbon from the santa ana region of el salvador, roasted by west berkshire roastery. the natural process, where the coffee dries inside the whole fruit, draws out the fruit's sugars and gives the cup a distinct sweetness. expect red apple up front, with brown sugar rounding out the finish. because the roast is light, filter brewing works best here, keeping the delicate fruit character clear and avoiding bitterness. a pour-over or aeropress with water around 90-93°c and a slightly finer grind will get the most from it.

How is White Gold grown and processed?

it is a bourbon varietal grown in the santa ana region of el salvador, processed naturally, meaning the coffee cherry is dried whole before milling, which concentrates fruit and sugar in the bean.

How should I brew White Gold?
