Feuille de café du Malawi

I'm usually a black tea loyalist, but this coffee leaf infusion is a completely different beast—it's got this gentle, almost honeyed smoothness with zero bitterness, even when I steeped it a bit too long. The leaves themselves are surprisingly large and whole. It's become my afternoon reset, honestl

The first cup caught me off guard — it's light and smooth, nothing like coffee, more like a gentle herbal brew. I've been drinking it every afternoon since, and the leaves hold up beautifully for three steeps without turning bitter.

I was skeptical about brewing coffee plant leaves, but the earthy, subtly sweet flavor is genuinely its own thing—nothing like coffee at all. The leaves steep into a light golden cup that’s smooth and easy to sip.
