colombia coffee
by lilo coffee roasters · osaka, japan
you'll taste lemon before red apple. this is colombia santuario project campo hermoso geisha black honey mossto lactic, a honey colombia from lilo coffee roasters.
expect lemon and red apple acidity alongside honey and honeycomb sweetness, with a tea-like quality and black tea finish that keeps the cup feeling delicate rather than heavy.
it's a geisha varietal grown in colombia's santuario region and processed as a black honey with a mossto lactic fermentation step, meaning the coffee dries with mucilage intact while undergoing lactic acid fermentation for added complexity.
given the light roast and tea-like profile, a pour-over or filter brew is the best fit, as it highlights the lemon, red apple, and black tea notes without masking the more subtle honeycomb sweetness.
