Bourbon Pointu

Bourbon Pointu, also known as Laurina, is a natural low-caffeine mutation of Bourbon discovered on Reunion Island. Its beans are distinctively elongated and pointed, containing about half the caffeine of typical Arabica. Nearly extinct by the mid-20th century, it was revived through Japanese-funded research in the early 2000s. The cup is exceptionally delicate, with tea-like body, floral notes, and bright citrus acidity.
