WHY WE LIKE IT
Dillanos Coffee Roasters is thrilled to have this small batch of Burundian coffee available for a limited time. Delight in the crisp, full body where hibiscus tea flavors melt into a mildly hoppy aftertaste. We’ve roasted this light to preserve the bright, tart cherry aroma that sets this coffee in a flavor experience of its own.
We recommend brewing with a French Press using water heated between 195°F to 205°F. Allow the freshly ground coffee to steep for four minutes before pressing the filter and serving.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the best way to store coffee?
The best way to store coffee is to keep it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from light and heat. Exposure to air, moisture, light, and heat can all affect the flavor and freshness of coffee, so it’s important to take steps to protect your coffee beans from these factors.
Here are some tips for storing coffee:
Use an airtight container: Oxygen can cause coffee to go stale, so it’s important to store your coffee in an airtight container to prevent exposure to air.
Keep it in a cool, dry place: Heat and moisture can also affect the quality of coffee, so it’s best to store your coffee in a cool, dry place, such as a pantry or cupboard.
Avoid light: Light can cause coffee to break down and lose its flavor, so it’s best to store your coffee in a dark place, such as a cabinet or opaque container.
Don’t store it in the fridge or freezer: While some people may think that storing coffee in the fridge or freezer can help to preserve its freshness, this can actually cause the coffee to absorb moisture and odors from other foods in the fridge or freezer, which can affect the flavor.
By following these tips, you can help to ensure that your coffee stays fresh and flavorful for as long as possible.
Which Grind Should I Choose?
- Whole Bean
- Drip, Pour Over & Chemex (the most common option for home use)
- Coarse Drip (for some commercial brewers)
- French Press
- Toddy / Cold Brew
- Espresso
- Home Espresso (compatible with most home espresso machines, which require a slightly coarser grind than commercial espresso machines)
What’s the difference between blends and single origins?
The main difference between a blend and a single-origin coffee is where the coffee beans come from.
Single-origin coffee comes from one specific geographic location, such as a particular farm, estate, or region. This means that all of the beans in a single-origin coffee are sourced from the same place and are likely to have similar flavor profiles based on the terroir, or the unique environmental factors that influence the coffee’s flavor, such as soil composition, altitude, and climate. Single-origin coffees can be a great way to experience the unique flavors of a particular coffee-growing region and to appreciate the nuances of different varieties of coffee.
In contrast, a coffee blend is made by combining beans from multiple locations or regions. Coffee blends are often created to achieve a specific flavor profile or to balance out the flavors of different beans. Blends can include beans that are sourced from different countries, regions, or even different roasts of the same bean. By combining different beans, coffee roasters can create blends that have a unique and consistent flavor profile, which can be appealing to coffee drinkers who prefer a particular taste or style of coffee.
