Black Powder Bourbon-Infused Costa Rica Coffee
Black Powder’s Bourbon-Infused Coffee starts with washed, direct-trade green coffee from Tarrazú, Costa Rica. Kentucky straight bourbon is introduced before slow roasting to a medium level. The roaster states that the finished coffee is non-alcoholic and makes it in limited batches; an out-of-stock order may wait 7–10 days for the next batch.

Brewing guidance
For drip or pour-over, start with 20 g of coffee and 320 g of water, a 1:16 brew ratio by mass. Use a medium grind and water around 92–95°C. Wet the grounds evenly, then keep pouring consistent. Adjust the grind gradually rather than changing dose, temperature and water amount together.
Frequently asked questions
Is this only bourbon-flavored coffee?
The documented treatment is bourbon infusion of green coffee before roasting. That is more specific than a generic bourbon flavor label.
What flavor profile should I expect?
Delicate coffee with bourbon-derived flavor. These are sensory descriptions; your brewing method and serving temperature affect their expression.
Which size and format should I choose?
12 oz or 5 lb; whole bean or drip grind. Select the grind that matches your brewer. Whole bean offers flexibility; a preground selection is ready for its intended method.
How can I adjust the cup’s strength?
Change the brew ratio if the flavor is balanced but the drink is too weak or too strong. Use slightly more coffee for greater concentration. Change grind size when the issue is extraction, such as sourness or a dry finish.
Can I compare it with another coffee?
Yes. Keep coffee dose, water amount and brewer consistent, and taste both at a similar temperature. That makes roast, body and acidity easier to compare without confusing them with different strengths.
How should I keep it fresh?
Keep the coffee sealed away from heat, light and moisture. Grind whole beans shortly before brewing. Choose a bag size that fits your consumption so repeated opening does not expose a large supply to air.

For the whole-bean option, a Turin DF54 grinder lets you adjust particle size between brews. Record the setting with your dose and water amount so the next cup is easier to repeat.
