A lighter roast will pack more punch than a dark roast, because less of the bean is roasted away. But the bean will also be more acidic and will have more nuance and fruit. So I think the lightest roast you can find, with maybe a pour-over drip maker, where you have the anticipation and the teasing of waiting for it, drip by drip, drop by drop. You don’t want to go so far you have a
dry orgasm but patience is always an important element in any fun time activities.
And, if you can afford it, go for a full steam-punk coffee pot. Something like a ‘Royal Belgium Coffee machine Siphonic Distillation coffee pot’ will add an element of mystery to the fun.
Just … be careful with cream. You don’t want to be weighed down by something that’s too cloying. If you can, try a bit of butter in your brew, it can counter the acidity and will give you a nice slippery warm embrace.
