Bourbon Barrel-Aged Coffee, 10 oz Bag: profile and selection
This ten-ounce bag offers Hemisphere Bourbon Barrel-Aged Coffee as either whole beans or prepared grounds. Nicaraguan green coffee rests in a freshly emptied white-oak bourbon barrel before medium roasting. The documented sensory direction combines bourbon-like aroma with oak, caramel and nutty sweetness.
The current listing does not name a farm, producer, cultivar, elevation, original green-coffee process, barrel-aging duration, harvest year or current cupping score.
This description separates documented coffee facts from information the supplier has not published. Confirm the selected size and grind in the cart before ordering.

Brew for the documented roast and profile
For a first filter brew, weigh 21 grams of coffee and 340 grams of filtered water around 198–202°F. Smell the freshly ground coffee, then compare that aroma with the finished cup. Taste it black before adding milk or syrup so the barrel-derived character can be judged without another flavoring masking it.
If the coffee is hollow or sharply sour, grind finer. If the oak impression arrives with an unpleasantly dry finish, move coarser. Hold dose, water and temperature steady during the first adjustment. Once extraction is balanced, a slightly tighter ratio can provide a more concentrated serving for milk.
Use a scale for dose and water. Beverage yield, drawdown and contact time are diagnostic measurements rather than goals by themselves. Evaluate body, acidity, clarity and finish together, then make the smallest useful adjustment.
Whole-bean customers can use a consistent grinder such as the Turin DF54 grinder to make controlled adjustments. Prepared grounds are convenient when their particle size matches the brewer, but one fixed grind cannot suit every filter, press and espresso setup.
Who this coffee suits
Choose the ten-ounce bag when prepared grounds are needed or when the bag format is more practical than a bottle. Hemisphere states that the coffee contains no alcohol; the bourbon reference describes the barrel’s prior use and its aromatic influence, not a ready-to-drink alcoholic beverage.
Roast development affects flavor and solubility. A light roast may need more extraction than a dark roast; a darker coffee may respond better to a coarser grind or slightly cooler water. Let the cup guide the recipe.
Freshness, storage and quantity planning
The stated package is 10 oz bag. Seal it after each use and store it away from heat, moisture, sunlight and strong aromas. Grind only the amount needed for the next brew when selecting whole beans.
Fresh roasted coffee releases gas, and degassing can change bloom, flow and perceived clarity over the life of the package. Keep the first successful recipe, but expect small grind corrections rather than treating one setting as permanent.
