This bean is perfect for a flat white, they’re a little smaller pre grind to some others I’ve tried so re-adjusted the grind. As with all Foundry Coffee beans they are incredibly consistent in the grind. In terms of flavour, they totally cut through the milk in my flat whites. Lovely chocolate flavour, and soft after taste. No bitterness! Rock on! 🤘
Great coffee, tasting notes are very pleasant. Good coffee to home brew!
Whats not to like? Juicy, complex, dark (but not too dark), Goes well in everything (spro, filter and milk for me). A genuine crowd pleaser, and regularly puts a smile on my face (its doing so as I type!). Will be ordering more.
Very good flavour bean, to my uneducated palate, a delicate pineapple mouthfeel with a sweet and light and delicious citrus taste. Made with a Vesuvius espresso maker as a long black 1:2 with hot water. Recommended!
I've been getting beans from Foundry for some time and they never let me down in quality of the coffee, speed of delivery and customer service. The Arcangel works great for espresso and I'm getting nice thick ristrettos with strong juicy "coffeeness" and this amaretto aftertaste I like a lot.
This is a delicious coffee with its fruity dark chocolate notes. Smells amazing and my work colleagues say so too. Goes really well with honeyed dark chocolate : )
Amazing coffee, can pick all the individual notes out of it but finding it hard to get just right using an aeropress. More than happy to keep practicing tho ;-)
I managed to dial the grinder in very quickly on these beans which produced a smooth silky brew which started off with a nice acidic mouthfeel and then produced a complex fruity flavour in spades.
A great coffee and easy to drink.
Undoubtedly one of the best tasting coffees I've had, and Foundry are a wonderful company to deal. If you haven't tried Rocko Mountain then you really should.
This is just a really *nice* coffee - slightly complex, big on the sweetness and lovely and fruity if you get it right. Currently got this on rotation with the ever present Rocko, but finding myself looking forward to this coming around. Enjoying this coffee as espresso and pour over, and also in milk. I would agree with the previous reviewer that its quite a 'comfort' coffee, but that doesn't mean its boring, far from it. Must admit to not knowing a lot about Rwandan coffee prior to this, but will happily be coming back for more!
A good example of a "comfort coffee" I think. It was very popular as a cappuccino providing smooth milk chocolate notes. As a filter, you get a great balanced but slightly sweet very drinkable coffee. Dialling it in for espresso I'm getting a sweet and slightly fruity drink, using 16.5 g in a longer 40 g shot with 5-6 seconds of pre-infusion over about 25 seconds in total.
We did enjoy this coffee and would recommend but the Rio Magdalena (the other one we tried) won the vote!
Working our way through the different coffees
First order from Foundry Coffee roasters. This was a great tasting coffee with good strength. Five stars from the whole family and they are a fussy lot!!
Have just put another order in!
This is a very good coffee - drinking it as a flat white and it is buttery smooth as described with a nice chocolate note. Second time ordering and I will be getting a bag each time I order. This true comfort coffee.
Just started these and the espresso I'm getting is up there with the best I've had .lelit Mara using eureka zenith grinder
The first time through the Wave and I was thinking "sure - strawberries - whatever". POW - right in the kisser: strawberries. What an amazing coffee. Has knocked my old favourite (from a different supplier) off the top spot. And its roasted in Sheffield. Your new biggest fan.
Having tried a lot of beans (with chocolate as the primary note) over the last decade, I have a new favouite. Also very nice as a flat white.
Usually get the Rocco Mountain, just shows that I should diversify. Excellent coffee!
Very strong but full flavoured. Not bitter and natural flavours coming through. I’m a double shot man but this I could easily drink with a single shot and still get the coffee hit I like.
Great Service Magnificent Coffee beans
Another great roast from the foundry, strawberry undertone. Will be buying again.
Yirgacheffe's are my favourite coffees and this is one of the very best.
Brewed in the Aeropress, tasted too soon (as always!) and thought "Meh!". But leave it for a couple of mins to cool slightly and it becomes fragrant and the flavours open out and are nicely complex. Wonderful rounded mouthfeel and long aftertaste. Great coffee, very well roasted.
This is just so good. I just spent a month in LA looking for decent coffee and I couldn't find anything that compared to Foundry's offering!
Hits the spot everytime.
I've tried MANY roasters in my time but FCR are briiliant and reliable.
Everytime
Ordered, delivered, drunk. Need some more. Love this rich coffee. Service is fantastic and freshness guaranteed. Buy some!!
I'm not a huge fan of the citrus coffees, if I want citrus I'll have a fruit tea! This coffee I love, it tastes like coffee; sweet, caramel, chocolate. 250g gone in 3 days, addicted.
I admit I was initially disappointed to open my subscription and find these beans, not one I would have picked from the tasting notes. How wrong was I! Amazing. It tastes a bit like black tea, but in a really good way.
Great service and great beans. Happiness is complete. Thanks.
This one and the Nana, I purchased at the same time. Turns out to be the best two Ethiopians I've had. Full of flavour andwith no hint of bitterness. You won't go wrong with these.
My first espresso with this bean was a surprise. The booziness, full on strawberries and funk from previous years Rocko isn't there. Once I got my head around this I really enjoyed the coffee.
Dark chocolate orange with a great mouthfeel and lingering aftertaste. Stunning coffee !
These cups are just the right size for your grab and go fix. The coffee stays warm for a bit depending on where you are obviously and they are small enough to not be in the way when empty. Holds an espresso with extra water (whatever that’’s called, not as big as an Americano) or a Cortado. Colours are fab too, had many an admiring glance. I would definately recommend to anyone who doesn’t drink a vat of coffee at a time :)
