Detailed Profiles & Brewing Inspiration

Single-Origin: Sítio Bom Destino, Espírito Santo

Grown at 900 meters and meticulously washed, this single-origin coffee from producer Josiane Lima Bissoli delivers elegant clarity. A medium roast balances structure with sweetness: delicate floral aromatics lead into honey, raw sugar (rapadura), and ripe peach. It shines in pour-over (Hario V60 or Kalita Wave) and reveals stone-fruit detail in flat-bed brews. For espresso, expect a clean, nectar-like shot; consider a 1:2 ratio and a slightly higher yield to highlight peach and honey.

Honey Process: Velvety and Luscious

From Waldir Manske at 1,100 meters, this Honey (pulped natural) Yellow Caturra marries a velvety body with medium, rounded acidity. Aromas of cane molasses and honey dovetail with raspberry, delivering a plush, fruit-sweet cup. It’s a standout for manual brews at 200°F, and a crowd-pleaser in moka pots or espresso where the syrupy texture amplifies berry and molasses. Think of it as your comfort-forward yet vibrant daily driver.

Premium Blend: Layered, Chocolate-Forward Complexity

Blending lots from Mantiqueira de Minas and Serra do Paredão, this premium Arabica combines fermented and natural processes for depth and balance. Expect chocolate, red fruits, milk chocolate, caramel, apple pie, cocoa, rapadura, and nuts-round and satisfying with medium to full body and medium-low acidity. Optimized for filters and traditional brewers, it’s ideal for batches in a drip maker or Chemex. For espresso, it pulls a creamy, dessert-like shot that pairs beautifully with milk.

Organic: Sustainably Sweet, Naturally Creamy

This certified-organic selection underscores Black Tucano’s commitment to stewardship. Grown on sustainably managed Brazilian farms and processed naturally, it offers a creamy mouthfeel with milk chocolate, peanut butter, and caramel. The balanced acidity and approachable profile make it versatile-from everyday pour-overs to rich cold brew. If you value clean farming and flavor integrity, this is your staple bag.

Fruity (Limited Edition): High-Score, Jammy Brilliance

From Lima Bassoli at Sítio Bom Destino, this fermented lot (SCA 89+) is a fruit-forward stunner. Strawberry and raspberry lead, with molasses and honey rounding the finish. The medium roast preserves vibrancy without sacrificing sweetness. Brew it as a V60 or Origami with a slightly finer grind and a 1:15 ratio to spotlight the high-toned berries. As espresso, it’s a modern, punchy shot-think strawberry compote wrapped in caramel.

Brewing Guidance for Peak Flavor

• Grind size: medium-fine for pour-over, coarse for French press, fine for espresso. Aim for 2:30–3:00 extraction times for most filters.
• Ratios: start at 1:16 for filter (e.g., 25 g coffee to 400 g water). For espresso, a 1:2 ratio (18 g in, 36 g out, ~28–32 seconds) suits the Premium, Honey, and Organic; try 1:2.2 for the Single-Origin and Fruity.
• Water: 198–205°F (92–96°C); use fresh, filtered water (75–150 ppm) to enhance clarity and sweetness.
• Rest: for newly roasted beans, allow a few days of rest to settle CO₂ and open the aromatic profile.
• Milk pairing: Premium and Organic excel in cappuccinos and flat whites; Single-Origin and Fruity shine black or with minimal milk; Honey offers a syrupy cortado.
