Black Tucano Single Origin Coffee Kit – 250g Roasted Arabica from Espírito Santo, Brazil

Meet the Black Tucano Single Origin Coffee Kit, a curated experience built around a 250g bag of carefully roasted specialty coffee sourced from Sítio Bom Destino in Afonso Cláudio, Espírito Santo, Brazil. Grown by producer Josiane Lima Bissoli at 900 meters and composed of the distinctive Yellow Catucaí 2SL variety, this washed-process lot highlights the harmony of Brazilian terroir: a clean, bright cup with graceful sweetness and a silky finish. With an SCA score of 86+ points and a dialed-in medium roast designed to excel as both filter and espresso, this single-origin selection is the cornerstone of a thoughtful home brewing ritual.

Why This Single-Origin Stands Out

At its heart, this coffee is about clarity and craftsmanship. The washed processing accentuates the varietal character of Yellow Catucaí 2SL, offering a crystalline expression of the farm’s microclimate. The medium roast profile preserves delicacy while unlocking balance and approachability, delivering a cup that’s nuanced yet versatile. Whether you lean toward a crisp pour-over or a syrupy, fruit-forward espresso, the Black Tucano Single Origin Coffee Kit brings café-quality performance to your counter.

Flavor Notes: Floral Lift, Honeyed Sweetness, Peach-Like Juiciness

Open the bag and a fragrant, coffee-first aroma rises-lilting florals over warm sweetness. On the palate, expect a layered progression from bright, floral aromatics to golden-honey sweetness and the rustic charm of raw sugar (rapadura). A gentle peach note rounds the profile with stone-fruit juiciness, while the finish is clean, polished, and comforting.

• Tasting Notes: Floral, Honey, Raw Sugar (Rapadura), Peach
• Mouthfeel: Silky and balanced; medium body with a soft, rounded texture
• Finish: Clean and lingering with a light, nectar-like sweetness

Roast and Brewing Versatility

Designed for flexibility, the medium roast is tuned to shine in both filter and espresso extractions. As a pour-over, you’ll find clarity and aromatic lift; as espresso, you’ll discover deeper sweetness and gentle fruit tones without losing definition. This is a coffee kit made for exploration-consistent enough for everyday brewing yet nuanced enough for weekends spent dialing in.

• Roast: Medium (ideal for filter and espresso)
• SCA Score: 86+ points
• Process: Washed for clarity and cleanliness

Origin Details & Craft

Provenance matters in specialty coffee, and this lot delivers a clear sense of place.

• Producer: Josiane Lima Bissoli
• Farm: Sítio Bom Destino
• Origin: Afonso Cláudio – Espírito Santo, Brazil
• Altitude: 900 meters
• Variety: Yellow Catucaí 2SL
• Type: 100% Arabica

The washed process, meticulously executed, removes the fruit before drying, preserving the seed’s inherent character. The result is a cup that’s pristine and articulate-florals that feel refined, sweetness that reads like spun honey, and fruit that’s present but never pushy. It’s a textural and aromatic signature that rewards attention.

Sourcing Ethics and Quality

This single-origin lot reflects a straightforward approach to quality and sustainability: careful picking, attentive processing, and responsible farm practices that respect both land and community. By working with producers like Josiane Lima Bissoli, we support craftsmanship at the source-where soil, variety, and method intersect. The quality is evident in the cup’s transparency and repeatable performance across brew methods.

Brew Guide: Get the Most from Your Coffee Kit

Every home setup is unique. Use the following as a starting point, then adjust grind, dose, and time to taste. This coffee kit is designed to help you find your sweet spot quickly.

Pour-Over (V60, Kalita, or Similar)

• Ratio: 1:16 (20 g coffee to 320 g water)
• Grind: Medium-fine (granulated sugar texture)
• Water Temp: 200–205°F (93–96°C)
• Total Time: 2:45–3:15

Method: Rinse filter. Add grounds and bloom with 40 g water for 35–45 seconds. Pour in steady pulses to 320 g by 2:00–2:15. Aim for a flat bed and even drawdown. Expect elevated florals and a nectar-like peach sweetness with a clean, honeyed finish.

Espresso

• Ratio: 1:2
• Starting Point: 18 g in, 36 g out in 28–32 seconds
• Grind: Fine, dial as needed

Method: Pre-infuse if your machine allows. The shot should present raw sugar sweetness up front with a subtle stone-fruit lift. If sour, grind finer or increase output slightly; if bitter or hollow, coarsen grind or shorten shot. For milk drinks, the honey and rapadura notes translate beautifully into a caramel-like latte profile without overwhelming the cup.

Texture, Aroma, and Balance

We roast Black Tucano to preserve the aromatic line-floral first, then honeyed, with peach rounding the mid-palate. The mouthfeel is silk-forward rather than heavy, making it equally compelling as a morning pour-over or an afternoon espresso. The sweetness is buoyant, the acidity is refined, and the aftertaste is tidy and long.

Freshness and Storage

• Degassing: Allow 5–10 days post-roast for peak clarity in filter brews; 7–14 days for espresso.
• Storage: Keep sealed, cool, and away from light and humidity. Avoid the fridge or freezer after opening.
• Grind Fresh: For the most expressive aromatics and sweetness, grind just before brewing.

Fans of washed Brazilian specialty coffee will love its composure; adventurous brewers will enjoy how responsive it is to grind and ratio adjustments.
