A word from one of our Waaqa experts

Flavien

Acacia blend is full of crisp fruity flavours typical of Colombia and Rwanda origins. Flavours of citrus, green apple, flowers are balanced by sweet notes of honey. It's a bright and elegant blend which works well both as filter or espresso brew. We loved it prepared with V60 at brewing ratio of 18g ground coffee to 300ml water, and think it's best enjoyed black.
