This coffee is roasted for filter. For this reason we love this coffee brewed on Chemex. The method gives the coffee a nice tea-like mouthfeel and a strong coffee blossom aroma. Do you prefer more texture and fruityness in your cup? Then try this coffee on Kalita or V60.

Tasting this coffee for the first time, we were surprised with the floral aromas, flavour of ripe peach and a juicy acidity.
