  Kambarare hits top 5 from cup score POV but probs not for me to be top 5. 
  I would replace with neto

- `2026-06-15 21:16` `#current-menu`
  Whoops. That makes it identical to janesh lol

- `2026-06-15 21:16` `#current-menu`
  William ortiz chiroso/duber is close to making it. Might make it actually

- `2026-06-15 21:17` `#current-menu`
  Also, i feel one of the pink bourbons must make it. I scored an early wilson alba 90

- `2026-06-15 21:17` `#current-menu`
  So hard tho.

  Danche or Chorso

  Sadly

- `2026-06-15 21:20` `#current-menu`
  And alba was 2nd harvest. Had to check notes.

- `2026-06-15 21:21` `#current-menu`
  Didn't even have the first release. It was *my* first

- `2026-06-15 21:21` `#current-menu`
  Sadly I didn't get enough kambarare. Didn't get any to take home to brew. Apparently it cleaned up as it aged.

- `2026-06-15 21:22` `#current-menu`
  I am working off less than a week off roast cupping. And it was too sticky sweet for me

- `2026-06-15 21:22` `#current-menu`
  Oh love that

- `2026-06-15 21:23` `#current-menu`
  Naomi brewing them more than all of us working bar. Curious her choices

- `2026-06-15 21:24` `#current-menu`
  I'll switch aragon for kambarare. To have one more region repped

- `2026-06-15 21:24` `#current-menu`
  Now it looks nice and varied

- `2026-06-15 21:25` `#current-menu`

  Now i drinking : Ethiopia, Hure, Red Honey
  
  Having previously tasted this coffee through TerraForm in China, I initially assumed it would remain exclusive to the Chinese market. Instead, the green coffee found its way into Korea, where a surprising number of roasters picked it up. Given the rarity of Red Honey processed Ethiopian coffees, the interest is understandable. The roaster behind this release is an extremely small and relatively unknown operation, yet the roasting is exceptional. Their approach is even lighter than SEY's, but without the loss of aromatic intensity that often accompanies ultra-light roasting.
  
  The profile is strikingly expressive: vivid blueberry and lychee dominate the cup, accompanied by elegant jasmine florals, honey-like sweetness, and a creamy, almost milky mouthfeel. As the cup progresses, passion fruit becomes increasingly prominent, carrying a bright, juicy acidity from the mid-palate all the way through the finish.

- `2026-06-15 02:25` `#what-are-you-brewing`
  I'm a fan of Little Wolf too, but I suspect many people here would consider it slightly roasty

- `2026-06-15 02:26` `#what-are-you-brewing`
  A local roaster called "Coffee Drinking Whale." They're so small that they don't even sell online yet

- `2026-06-15 02:28` `#what-are-you-brewing`
  They use a really unusual roaster, though. I can't remember the name right now, but I suspect that's part of their secret

- `2026-06-15 02:33` `#what-are-you-brewing`
  I think it was that one. If I remember correctly, it's a small fluid-bed roaster that was designed with the Neotec RFB in mind. It's a pretty old-school machine, but the results are surprisingly impressive

  Soup + Ice

- `2026-06-15 02:39` `#what-are-you-brewing`
  Also Soup + Tonic seems to be one of the trend in the Korea

- `2026-06-15 03:19` `#origins-and-producers`
  Did you see it under UV?

- `2026-06-15 03:21` `#origins-and-producers`
  A lot of roasters probably need to take a look

- `2026-06-15 03:34` `#origins-and-producers`
  GC-MS is seriously expensive

- `2026-06-15 03:35` `#origins-and-producers`
  For the cost of a single GC-MS analysis, could probably run dozens—maybe even a hundred—genetic tests, seriously

- `2026-06-15 03:38` `#origins-and-producers`
  I don't think that's going to be easy. There are all sorts of legal complications, and the cost alone would be a major obstacle

- `2026-06-15 05:59` `#what-are-you-brewing`
  Now i drinking : Colombia, Acevedo, Bourbon Aji-Washed from Bilbao Hernan Calderon
  
  Aji is a fascinating variety. It's known for its unusual spice-like aromatics and a distinct chili-like character that sets it apart from most other coffees. This is my first time trying an Aji from Acevedo, and once again, it's proving to be a rather unusual cup. The profile opens with mocha-like notes and the sweetness of brown sugar, accompanied by hints of star anise and the characteristic chili-like aromatics that Aji is known for. Taken at face value, that might make the coffee sound quite strange. However, from the middle of the cup onward, a concentrated green grape fruitiness begins to emerge, followed by a refreshing herbal quality that brings balance and clarity to the profile.

  Burundi naturals… they tend to taste either like old-school Ethiopian coffees or cognac 🍷

- `2026-06-15 23:47` `#current-menu`
  I think it was Mikuba? It was pretty good. Floral, tropical fruit, lychee, persimmon

- `2026-06-15 23:49` `#current-menu`
  Long Miles naturals could be absolutely incredible. I wonder what they’re like these days

- `2026-06-15 02:37` `#what-are-you-brewing`
  For 20grams you do 20ml hot (maybe 200°), pump it to bloom, then fill a second time with 60ml room temp, let it sit 3-5min then pump through

- `2026-06-15 02:37` `#what-are-you-brewing`
  Than dilute

  I did a long soup similar to

- `2026-06-15 21:43` `#current-menu`
  1) Albino
  2) Danche WH
  3) Neto Gesha
  4) Wilson second harvest
  5) Kambarare

- `2026-06-15 21:43` `#current-menu`
  Kambarare and Albino are the coolest coffees

- `2026-06-15 21:48` `#current-menu`
  Dwight Yellow and Putushio Mejo are honorable mentions, especially since they were exclusives for SEY House the first major thing I worked on at SEY
