Rathlin is a smooth, easy-drinking medium roast and a 1-star Great Taste award winner. It blends 100% Arabica beans from Colombia, Kenya and Nicaragua.
In the cup, expect milk chocolate and hazelnut notes with a smooth finish. It is a comforting, all-day coffee that works just as well black as it does with milk.
How to brew it
- Espresso: 18g of ground coffee to 36g of espresso in roughly 30–35 seconds; adjust the grind to hit the time.
- Filter / pour-over: 60g of coffee per litre of water (20g to 333g for one cup) at a medium-fine grind; bloom first, then pour in slow circles.
- Cafetière: use a coarse grind and the same 60g per litre ratio.
