Taste the Terroir: Two Processes, One Origin

This duo showcases the expressive range of Espírito Santo through two meticulously crafted profiles. The washed lot highlights clarity: a gentle floral lift over golden honey sweetness, finishing with the textured caramel of rapadura and a whisper of ripe peach. The Honey lot leans into texture: velvety body and a warmly sweet core of cane molasses and honey, sparked by raspberry brightness. Together, they offer a sensory study in process and place-an ideal kit for anyone who values specialty coffee nuance and the ritual of brewing.

Black Tucano Single Origin - Sítio Bom Destino

From producer Josiane Lima Bissoli at Sítio Bom Destino, this Yellow Catucaí 2SL is a lesson in balance and finesse. The washed process amplifies a clean, perfumed cup: bouquet-like florals, layered honeyed sweetness, and a distinct raw sugar character reminiscent of Brazilian rapadura. A juicy peach undertone adds dimension without overpowering the cup. The medium roast preserves varietal identity and while ensuring versatility for V60, Kalita, batch brew, and espresso. As filter, expect lifted aromatics and a refreshing, silky finish; as espresso, look for nectar-like sweetness with a refined, crystalline clarity.

Black Tucano Honey - Sítio Alto Santa Joana

From producer Waldir Manske, this Yellow Caturra undergoes a carefully managed Honey (Pulped Natural) process that coaxes depth and texture. In the cup, a velvety body carries notes of cane molasses and honey, accented by a charming raspberry brightness. The medium, rounded acidity keeps everything in balance, making it a standout for both straight espresso and milk pairing. As pour-over, it shows a plush sweetness; as a flat white or cappuccino, its molasses-honey core shines through with confident presence and a long, satisfying finish.

Brewing Guidance for Best Results

Both coffees are roasted for versatility. Use high-quality water (75–120 ppm), grind fresh, and adjust ratios to taste. Aim for gentle extraction to preserve aromatics and sweetness.

• Filter Brewing (V60 or Kalita)
  • Ratio: 1:16 (18 g coffee to 288 g water)
  • Water: 200–205°F (93–96°C)
  • Grind: Medium-fine for the washed; a touch coarser for the Honey
  • Total Time: 2:45–3:15
  • Tip: For the washed lot, use a gentle pulse pour to highlight florals; for the Honey lot, a steady pour enhances body and molasses sweetness.
• Espresso
  • Ratio: 1:2
  • Dose: 18 g in, 36 g out
  • Time: 26–30 seconds at 200°F (93°C)
  • Tip: For the washed lot, keep the shot tighter for clarity; for the Honey lot, allow a slightly longer brew for syrupy texture and raspberry tone.

Sustainability, Craft, and Care

Both lots are traceable to small, family-run farms in Afonso Cláudio, where selective picking and careful processing protect the integrity of each cherry. At Sítio Bom Destino, the washed approach emphasizes cleanliness and structure, requiring disciplined fermentation and thorough drying. At Sítio Alto Santa Joana, the Honey process preserves a portion of the mucilage on the seed, intensifying sweetness while reducing water use. Black Tucano Coffee Roasters brings these coffees to life with a roast profile that respects the producers’ work-highlighting aromatics, preserving sweetness, and ensuring dial-in ease across brew methods.

Who This Kit Is For

• Tasters who want to explore processing side by side-clarity versus texture-within the same growing region.
• Home baristas perfecting both filter and espresso extractions, seeking consistent, forgiving coffees with high reward.
• Gift-givers looking for a thoughtful, origin-forward coffee kit that feels premium without pretense.
• Anyone who values the sensory narrative of specialty coffee: aroma that invites, flavor that evolves, and sweetness that lingers.

Freshness & Storage

Each bag contains 250g of freshly roasted coffee. For peak expression, rest 5–12 days post-roast for espresso and 3–10 days for filter. Store in a cool, dry place in its resealable bag or an airtight container. Grind just before brewing to capture the full spectrum of floral lift, honeyed sweetness, and fruit nuances.
