Volcancitos Honey Espresso

Afianzamos nuestra relación con Sergio con este Catuaí Rojo. Meloso, con notas a piña en almíbar, naranja sanguina y miel.

The Volcancitos Honey Espresso, produced by Sergio and roasted by Right Side Coffee, showcases the distinct character of the Catuaí Rojo varietal. This lot utilizes the honey process, a technique that sits between washed and natural methods by leaving a portion of the fruit mucilage on the bean during drying. As detailed in our guide to processing methods, this approach often imparts a heightened sweetness and a syrupy body to the final cup.

When evaluating this espresso, tasters may identify notes of piña en almíbar, blood orange, and honey. These profiles can be complex to categorize, and we encourage using the flavor wheel to better articulate the nuances found in such honey-processed offerings. By balancing the inherent acidity of the citrus notes with the deep, sugary qualities of the honey, this coffee provides a compelling example of how careful post-harvest handling can influence the sensory experience of a single-varietal harvest.
