Two Ethiopian coffees harmonize with Ugandan beans to yield this powerful crowd-pleaser. It’s an inspired combination—the raisiny funk of the latter fusing with the crisp fruitiness of the others to create a dark-but-vibrant pot tinged with dried blueberries and cardamom. It does its best work in a French press or moka pot, with or without cream.

Here's what you get:

Blue Bottle Coffee

James Freeman, a self-described “slightly disaffected freelance musician and coffee lunatic,” started roasting beans nearly a decade ago. Today he is at the forefront of the booming craft coffee movement, with a burgeoning empire of outposts on both coasts and a reputation for exquisite organic coffees sold within 48 hours of roasting.

The Pour-Over

If you’re looking for a single brewing method to make every Blue Bottle coffee shine, it’s the pour-over. While the technique takes practice, the bright-tasting cup you end up with is well worth the effort. The right equipment is crucial; you need a ceramic dripper, filters and a long-spouted kettle for precision pouring. To begin, set the dripper on top of your cup and add four level tablespoons of finely ground coffee. Heat your water to approximately 190°, then drizzle a small amount over the grounds—just enough to moisten them, but not so much that brewed coffee starts to drip through. Wait 30 seconds or so, then continue pouring a slow and steady stream, orbiting in a circle the size of a quarter. Serve immediately. For a master class in brewing methods, visit the Blue Bottle website.
