How to brew them

Questions

How do I taste the floral notes?

Brew as filter and let the cup cool a little. Floral aromas are easiest to notice as the coffee drops from hot to warm.

Why are floral coffees usually light roasts?

Floral aromatics are fragile and fade the longer a coffee is roasted, so roasters keep these coffees light.

Which origins taste the most floral?

Ethiopia, particularly washed coffees from Yirgacheffe and Guji, along with Gesha from Panama and Colombia.
