you'll taste winey before almond. this is faustin ribarimana, rwanda | espresso, a washed rwanda from williams & johnson coffee co..
it has a winey character with almond, qualities typical of washed rwandan bourbon. the espresso roast gives it enough body to stay present in milk-based drinks without the winey note disappearing.
it's a bourbon varietal from rwanda, processed using the washed method, which removes the fruit skin and pulp before drying to produce a cleaner, more defined cup.
it's roasted for espresso, so a machine or moka pot suits it best. if you're pulling shots, standard espresso parameters apply, and it works well as a short black or with a small amount of milk.
williams & johnson feels like the coffee shop leith didn't know it needed until it opened on customs wharf. the beans here get the kind of attention most places reserve for their rent calculations, careful, methodical, obsessive in the best way. you can taste the difference in every cup, that clean finish that comes from someone who actually understands extraction rather than just pushing buttons. the 4.7-star rating from 240 reviews tells the story better than any marketing copy could. regulars queue up because they know what consistency means here. the baristas remember your order, sure, but more importantly they remember how you like your milk steamed. not too hot. just right. while the chains automate everything into beige mediocrity, this place still believes coffee deserves respect. leith's getting gentrified from every angle, but at least it's getting proper coffee in the process.
