Single Origin Brazilian — Barrel-Aged in a Willett Rye Whiskey Barrel
Bright, chocolatey Brazilian beans rested to maturity in a carefully selected Willett rye whiskey barrel. Over weeks of slow barrel aging, the coffee absorbs the barrel’s warm rye spice, toasted oak, and subtle vanilla, creating a layered cup that balances classic Brazilian sweetness with whiskey-forward character.
Tasting Notes
Dark chocolate and brown sugar
Cinnamon, baking spice, and black pepper from the rye
Toasted oak and vanilla finish
Smooth, medium-full body with a lingering, warming finish
Origin & Process
Single origin: Brazil — responsibly sourced, natural-processed lots chosen for sweetness and body
Barrel: Authentic Willett rye whiskey barrel, previously used for single-barrel rye
Aging: Controlled, small-batch barrel aging to allow nuanced whiskey character without overpowering the coffee’s natural profile
Roast: Medium to medium-dark profile to highlight both inherent coffee sweetness and barrel-derived spice
Brew Recommendations
Brew methods: French press, pour-over (V60), and drip for clarity; espresso for concentrated chocolate and spice
Dose: 1:16 (brew) or standard espresso dosing; adjust to taste
Grind: Medium-coarse for French press, medium for drip, fine for espresso
What makes it special This release showcases the best of both worlds — Brazil’s signature chocolate and caramel sweetness enhanced, not masked, by the rye barrel’s warm spice and oak. Small-batch, barrel-aged with intention, it’s ideal for those who enjoy whiskey-inspired complexity in their coffee without sacrificing clarity and balance.
Available in limited quantities. Roast date and batch number included with every bag.
