you'll taste red apple before honey. this is 哥斯大黎加 聖伊斯德羅莊園 紅波旁 蜜處理 (costa rica san isidro bourbon honey), a honey costa rica from moonshine coffee roasters | 私釀咖啡商行 (敦南旗艦店).
the cup leads with red apple acidity and follows with honey and honeycomb sweetness. the honey process adds a soft, syrupy body that ties the fruit and sweetness together.
it is a red bourbon varietal grown at san isidro estate in costa rica and processed using the honey method, where some fruit mucilage is left on the bean during drying. this contributes to the noticeable sweetness and body in the finished cup.
filter brewing methods like pour over or drip suit this coffee well, allowing the red apple and honeycomb character to express clearly. use water around 90-93°c and a medium-fine grind to keep the sweetness balanced and the acidity clean.
