A medium roast preserves the syrupy, molasses-like sweetness the black-honey process builds, without tipping into bitterness.

Processing: Black Honey

In honey processing, the skin is removed but some of the sweet mucilage is left on the bean during drying. This "in-between" method keeps much of the sweetness and body of a natural while retaining some of the clarity of a washed coffee — syrupy and rounded.

Brewing tips

  • Use water at 92–94°C
  • Grind just before brewing
