Tracked to Yirgacheffe

Washed heirloom beans from the Konga station, roasted light so every floral note survives the trip. Brew it as a pour-over and watch it glow: jasmine on the nose, raspberry in the cup, a yuzu snap at the end.

“Best light roast I've had in years. It tastes like a karaoke bar smells. In a good way.”
