This Red Bourbon coffee is sourced from Juru, a washing station partnering with One Acre Fund in the Rulindo District of Rwanda's Northern Province. The coffee is grown by smallholder farmers at elevations between 1700-2300 meters above sea level. It is processed using the honey method, where cherries are pulped and dried with their natural mucilage, resulting in a sweet, fruity, and balanced cup. Flavor notes include plum, hops, and brown sugar. This coffee represents Juru's only presence in the U.S. market through Methodical's collaboration.
Methodical Coffee was launched in Greenville, South Carolina, in 2015 by a trio of friends David, Will, and Marco. They managed to blend Will’s background running a mobile coffee cart with Marco’s product design skills to build a brand that looks super elegant but feels totally warm and welcoming. Their roasting style is all about clarity and sweetness; they generally avoid the super-dark stuff in favor of clean, vibrant profiles that are easy to drink every single day. The packaging is famously beautiful, patterned and floral. It feels like the ultimate Southern hospitality take on specialty coffee.
