Bean review: Walnuts -

I ordered separately from the BeanDrop just because I spotted it and figured to try it out.

Brewed on a Deep 27 following the Walnuts recommendation of 15g to 225g of water. Grinded with a ZP6 with the grind setting on 6 (for now) but I have gone as low as 4. I tried 93C for Las Aguilas, Kii aa, and Halo Golden Honey but have also gone up to 95C. They were roasted on 7th of May, so I waited until about 35 days before trying any. Since then they have opened up a bit, but still seem to be improving. My water is around 80ppm.

The coffees have come out as tea-like body, some acidity, and some of the suggested flavours given by Walnuts. Halo golden honey stood out as mostly floral and sweet with a stone fruit aroma. Kii aa has been bright, juicy, and showing that blood orange. Las aguilas is light, floral, and just has that slight acidity of passionfruit.

Recommended if you really like light floral flavours and bright acidity.
