you'll taste lemon before winey. this is (beans of the month) guatemala guaya'b fair trade organic, a honey guatemala from dear deer coffee roasting bar onehunga.
expect lemon and jasmine florals up front, a winey mid-palate, and a finish that moves through caramel, honey, honeycomb, cocoa, and almond. the honey process gives it noticeable sweetness and body alongside those brighter notes.
it is grown in huehuetenango, guatemala, and carries both fair trade and organic certification. it is honey processed, meaning some fruit mucilage remains on the bean during drying, which contributes to its sweetness and winey character.
filter methods such as pour-over or aeropress will highlight the lemon, jasmine, and floral notes, while espresso will pull more from the caramel, cocoa, and almond side of the cup. grind fresh and keep water off the boil slightly to avoid muting the lighter floral notes.
