Buying advice
Brew light in a pour-over to keep the fruit. Avoid dark roast, which kills the signature acidity. Not a milk drinker's first pick.
FAQ
Why so bright?
Varietal and double fermentation build grapefruit acidity.
Best roast?
Light to medium; dark hides the fruit.
With milk?
The acidity clashes - drink it black.
