Flavor Description

This Yellow Bourbon from the Mantiqueira mountains represents a classic Brazilian specialty style loved by many cafés. Expect hazelnut, milk chocolate, and caramel sweetness on entry, a silky body, and a finish with hints of ripe fruit and toffee. It is less heavy than traditional Brazil profiles and not overly acidic, making it highly drinkable.

Why It’s Popular

Yellow Bourbon naturally carries high sweetness, and pulped-natural processing preserves Brazil’s nutty chocolate foundation while adding cleaner and more refined sweetness.

Brewing Notes

  • Pour-over: Recommended water temperature 90–92°C, ratio 1:15
  • Espresso: Also works beautifully as the sweet base in an espresso blend
