T&R Burundi

Tasting notes

About this bean

T&R Burundi is a medium-light roast from Toasted and Roasted, sourced from Burundi. It is prepared using the natural method. Natural processing dries the bean inside the whole cherry, which often imparts fruit-forward sweetness and a heavier body. Results can vary widely between farms. Medium-light roasts keep most of the origin character while developing a little more sweetness through caramelisation. The roaster lists tasting notes of Watermelon, Peach and Animal Cracker. Tasting notes are the roaster's reference, not a guarantee; your cup will be shaped by your grinder, water and recipe. Home baristas on Puck Yeah have logged 6 shots of this bean, with an average community rating of 7.2 out of 10 across 6 ratings.
