Brewing Method

hario V60 01 / coffee beans 13g / temperature 90ºC

Step 1: Bloom (0:00-0:30) Pour 26g of hot water, ensuring all coffee grounds are fully saturated.

Step 2: Extraction (0:30–0:45) Continue pouring hot water until it reaches 140g. Pour in gentle, circular motions as the water level rises.

Step 3: Pour (0:55–1:15) Continue pouring water until it reaches 215g. Finish by pouring directly into the center to minimize agitation and reduce undesirable qualities.

 

Peak Flavor Period for Coffee

Our coffee is specially formulated to not only display bright and vibrant flavors immediately after roasting but also has the potential to develop deeper, richer flavors with 2 to 3 months of **intentional aging**.

Flavor Characteristics as They Evolve Over Time

Early Post-Roast: Freshly roasted beans still contain a large amount of carbon dioxide (gas) internally, which can make the aroma and flavor seem relatively subdued and unstable.

First Week: Typically, coffee begins to enter its optimal drinking state about one week after roasting.

Extended Aging (2-3 Months): Over time, coffee undergoes a delightful evolution. After approximately 2 to 3 months, you can enjoy an exceptionally clean and refined cup of coffee.

Why is "Aging" Necessary?

As gases gradually release, the coffee's aroma becomes clearer and more defined. Concurrently, the sweetness, body, and aftertaste will achieve a harmonious unity, revealing a depth and complexity not present in the early stages of roasting.

About blend kyoto

Blend Kyoto, located in a century-old machiya townhouse next to the Kyoto Imperial Palace, has sparked a flavor revolution in the specialty coffee world with its ultimate pursuit of the "blending" craft. The shop's minimalist black aesthetic perfectly merges with its ancient wooden structure, showcasing a unique sense of beauty.

The brand was founded by Daiki Okui, who previously worked at the legendary GLITCH. He breaks away from the "single origin" framework, boldly selecting top-tier single-origin beans and even Geisha coffee for blending, creating a sensory experience that is as harmonious and layered as a symphony. In addition to exquisite blending techniques, Blend Kyoto also emphasizes coffee bean "aging," allowing flavors to undergo profound transformations over time. Now, you don't have to travel all the way to Kyoto to savor this ultimate balance crafted by an artisan, thanks to our carefully selected collection.
