How it brews
Kono's Meimon cone paper for the Meimon dripper, sold in MD-25 (about 2 cups) and MD-45 (about 4 cups). It's a conical paper that shares the V60 seat, so it drops into a standard V60-class cone as well as a Kono — handy if the Kono paper is easier to find than the reverse. Kono publishes no flow rating for it and there's no reliable within-seat ranking against other cone papers, so we leave flow unrated rather than guess. Pick the size to your batch, and a rinse before brewing is the usual habit for any single-use cone paper.

How it brews
An abaca-forward paper (abaca fibre plus European-pine cellulose and a plant-based PLA binder) for V60-style cones, made in Barcelona in S/M/XL. Sibarist positions it as draining meaningfully faster than a standard cone paper, the idea being that you can grind finer for more extraction without choking the bed — that fast, low-clog framing is the maker's own, not independently measured here. Despite the durable feel it's sold single-use; the rinse-and-reuse you'll see online is a community habit, not a Sibarist claim. If your brews routinely stall, this is the paper that most directly buys back drawdown speed on a cone.
