Washed

The fruit comes off before the coffee dries.

Washing removes the fruit before drying, which tends to leave a cleaner, more transparent cup. Red Bourbon make up this lot.

Honey Bloom is cleaner, floral, and honeyed. Red Orchard is fruitier, rounder, and deeper.

Ritual

Coffee for the stillness of early light.

Best as pour-over or batch filter, where the fruit has room to open.
