Café em Grão250g
A Kanzu Station vem da Comunidade Kanzu, em Ruanda, onde os cafés são cultivados a 1.800 metros acima do nível do mar e processados naturalmente — secos lentamente em camas elevadas, em cereja inteira, para permitir que os açúcares da fruta penetrem no grão. É um processo que recompensa a paciência, e aqui ele mostra: este lote é intenso em frutas de uma maneira que os cafés ruandenses lavados raramente são. Nós o desenvolvemos para o espresso. Ao ser extraído, a framboesa atinge primeiro — nítida e com sabor de geleia, sem modéstia — antes de se transformar em uma acidez nítida de maçã vermelha que mantém a bebida vibrante em vez de pesada. Termina longo e escuro, com uma nota de chocolate de confeitaria que arredonda tudo e permanece no paladar muito depois de a xícara estar vazia. O corpo é xaroposo, do tipo que se mantém no leite sem desaparecer, mas é igualmente atraente quando feito curto e bebido puro. Este é um café que tem o sabor de onde vem: cultivado em altitude, cuidadosamente seco e cultivado por uma comunidade que tem aprimorado o processo natural em algo distinto.

Origin ORIGEM ISOLADA
Coffee is sourced seasonally for clarity, sweetness, and a distinctive sense of place.
Brew method EXPRESSO
Designed to stay expressive across filter and espresso recipes. Use the guide below as a starting point.

Gesha - Pourover

A rare variety, grown in small quantity and released in a single limited lot. Its character is fragile - apricot, rose hips, a tea-like finish - so brew it gently and let it speak.

Grind

Gesha’s florals are delicate and easily lost. Go a touch finer than your usual medium, even and consistent, so the sweetness develops without forcing it. Too coarse and the cup turns thin and watery; too fine and bitterness buries the jasmine. Adjust in small steps.

Dose

Every gram of this lot counts, so weigh it out. Start at 1:16—15 grams of coffee to 240 grams of water—for a clean, transparent cup. Open up toward 1:17 to lift the aromatics, or tighten slightly for more body.

Bloom

Use water just off the boil, around 92–94°C—hotter can scorch its fragile top notes. Pour about double your dose, around 30–40 grams, to gently saturate the grounds, then wait 40–45 seconds as the aroma opens up.

Pour

Treat it softly. Pour in slow, narrow circles, keeping the water level steady and low rather than flooding the bed. Minimal agitation keeps the cup clear, layered and silky, exactly what makes this coffee rare.

Total Brew Time

Aim for about 3–3½ minutes. Let it cool a little before your first sip—Gesha reveals more as it opens.

    The BOMB!!

    This coffee is absolutely delicious- worth the treat! I followed the pour over instructions (1:16) and I was blown away! The “notes” description were spot on and I love the rose hip finish - Icing on the cake. I ordered another because I don’t want to miss out on this rare brew. Don’t sleep on this.

Coffee FAQ

Q: What does “specialty coffee” mean?

Specialty coffee is carefully evaluated for quality, traceability, and flavor—from cultivation and processing through roasting and brewing.

Q: Where does BIGFACE source its coffees from?

We source distinctive coffees from exceptional producers and regions around the world, selecting each release for clarity, sweetness, and character.

Q: Why do tasting notes mention fruit, flowers, or chocolate?

Those notes describe flavors and aromas naturally present in the coffee. Nothing is added; they are reference points for what you may experience in the cup.

Q: How should I store my coffee?

Keep the bag sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct light, heat, moisture, and strong odors. Grind only what you plan to brew.

Q: Is specialty coffee worth the higher price?

The price reflects careful sourcing, producer expertise, quality-focused processing, and small-batch roasting—all of which show up in the final cup.
