Story:
Details:

Rugori bursting with sweet fruit flavors. Expect juicy blueberry followed by sweet dried prune, then delicate apricot sweetness in the finish, with hints of lemon throughout.


Why We Like it and Recommended Resting Time: 

This coffee is so juicy and structured! This Rugori is a prime example of why we love Apollon's Gold's roasting style and it is also one of the first times you might taste a blueberry note in a Burundi. We've really enjoyed brewing this coffee on espresso and pourover and find the cup to be incredibly juicy with a nice lemongrass finish. We recommend brewing this coffee at the minimum of 6 weeks off roast and have found it to develop vibrant acidity and become even more structured toward 8 weeks off roast.
