Rwanda Nova Estate | Red Champagne A1 Natural

Nova Estate "Red Champagne" Natural A1

This "Red Champagne" coffee isn't actually made with wine; rather, it describes its rich, mellow flavor, reminiscent of red wine, and its bright, elegant notes, like champagne. Produced in the high-altitude mountains of Rwanda's Northern Province and meticulously processed by the renowned Nova Estate, it offers a complex, layered purple fruit profile.

📋 Coffee Flavor Profile

• Flavor Notes: Purple grape, tropical fruits, bright acidity, lingering sweetness, red wine-like finish
• Roast Level: Light-Medium Roast (to preserve fruit notes)
• Mouthfeel Characteristics: Lively and clean acidity, with excellent sweetness and body thanks to the natural process.

💡 Brewing Suggestions

Due to this bean's high density (846g/L) and high altitude, resulting in a very solid structure, we recommend:

1. Water Temperature: Use a higher water temperature (approx. 90°C - 92°C) to bring out the deep purple fruit aromas.
2. Grind Size: Medium grind (similar to granulated sugar).
3. Coffee-to-Water Ratio: We recommend 1:15 to best highlight its prominent sweetness.
