Ecuador - Maputo "Hakuna Matata" Sidra

this is a honey-processed sidra from the maputo farm in pichincha, ecuador, and it placed in the cup of excellence, a competition that independently verifies exceptional quality. the blend of sl-28, caturra, bourbon, and typica varietals, combined with honey processing, gives the cup a clear structure: bright lemon acidity, blackcurrant fruit, and a sweetness that moves between honey and honeycomb. because honey processing retains some of the fruit's mucilage, expect a fuller body than a washed coffee. it suits filter brewing, where that layered sweetness and citrus clarity can develop without pressure flattening the detail.
