What it does

  • Double-Washed Processing
  • Screen 17/18 AA Grade
  • Volcanic Soil Origin
  • Vibrant Acidity

Who it suits

  • tasting a specific origin rather than a house blend
  • brewing where you already control grind, water and time — the variables that let an origin show

Who should skip it

  • anyone brewing with very hot water and a long contact time, which flattens the character you are paying for
  • milk drinks, where a delicate lot largely disappears

The thing worth knowing

Roast date matters more than any other single number on the bag. Coffee is at its best from roughly four days to four weeks after roasting; loose leaf keeps far longer if it is sealed and away from light.

What we have not done

We have not independently tested this product. The description above is compiled from the manufacturer’s published specification and from what the category demands, and it is written to tell you who the equipment suits rather than to sell it. Where we have no first-hand experience, we say so rather than inventing a star rating.
