Three Africas

Summary

Three Africas is a blend from Blue Bottle Coffee combining two Ethiopian coffees (one washed, one natural processed) with a coffee from Rwanda in Central Africa. Roasted at a medium level, it offers flavour notes of golden raisin, winey blueberry, and lemon zest. The Rwanda component comes from organic-certified washing stations where women hold critical leadership roles, celebrated in honour of the International Year of the Woman Farmer. The blend is versatile, suitable for both pour-over and espresso preparation.
