the castillo fermented from cafetal coffee co. is a colombian honey-process green bean sold in 1 kg lots, meaning you roast it yourself at home or in a small-batch setup. honey processing leaves some fruit mucilage on the bean during drying, which drives the winey, caramel, and honeycomb qualities in the cup alongside brighter citrus notes of lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest. because you control the roast, pulling to a light or medium-light finish will preserve the citrus brightness, while nudging toward medium will bring out more of the caramel and honeycomb depth. filter methods suit the range of flavours well once roasted.
