The Natural

Roast: Medium-Dark

Origin: Ethiopia

Process: Natural and washed

Varietal: Various

This was Black & White’s first ever coffee and we can see why it’s still a beloved cafe staple today, highlighting the rich fruit notes of a classic natural process Ethiopian. This season’s offering has a sweet and slightly boozy character. We tasted mixed berries, sangria, candied orange, and peach rings, with a rosy fragrance, a sparkling tangerine acidity, and a light, syrupy body.

Whatever brewing device you’re using, we recommend a 1:16 ratio of coffee to water. Use filtered water and aim for a total brew time between 2:30 and 3:30 minutes. Our biggest piece of advice is to be sure to give the coffee some time to de-gas before brewing: 7-10 days off-roast at least.

All orders ship freshly roasted direct from Black & White within 1-2 business days.
