Bourbon Reserve
Bourbon Reserve - Washed Process, Medium Roast
This Bourbon variety coffee is sourced from Colombian farms and processed using the washed method to ensure clarity and clean flavor development. The coffee presents aromatic notes of blackberry, chocolate, and macadamia, with a creamy body and flavors of macadamia and white chocolate.
The washed process removes the fruit and mucilage before drying, resulting in a cup that emphasizes the bean's inherent characteristics. This processing method produces transparency in flavor, allowing the Bourbon variety's natural sweetness and balanced acidity to remain distinct.
The medium roast level is selected to develop the coffee's body and sweetness while preserving the delicate flavor compounds characteristic of the Bourbon variety. Each lot is sourced from established farms and roasted in small batches to maintain quality standards from harvest through preparation.

Love the bourbon reserve! I like to go for lighter roasts for pourover and medium for espresso for the crema. This bourbon reserve is the best of both worlds, providing a nice smooth body while introducing some of the acidic fruity notes back into the cup while pairing nicely with milk bases also.
Thank you for sharing your experience with Bourbon Reserve! We love hearing how well it works across different brewing styles. It’s great to know you’re enjoying the balance between the smooth body, fruity acidity, and rich crema, especially in milk-based drinks as well. Your feedback perfectly captures what makes this variety so unique. We appreciate your support and hope every cup keeps impressing!
