you'll taste jasmine before floral. this is ohia lehua honey, a honey hawaii from island vintage coffee.
it tastes floral and sweet, with jasmine, honey, and honeycomb character coming through in the cup. the honey process gives it a soft, fruit-derived sweetness without being heavy.
it is grown in hawaii and processed using the honey method, meaning some of the fruit mucilage is left on the bean as it dries. this adds sweetness and body compared to a washed coffee.
filter or pour-over brewing suits this coffee well, allowing its jasmine and honeycomb notes to come through cleanly. grind fresh and avoid over-extraction to preserve the delicate floral character.
