Fausto Romo Honey - Ecuador

fausto romo honey is a single-producer coffee from the pichincha region of ecuador, processed using the honey method, where some fruit mucilage is left on the bean during drying. that extra contact with the fruit comes through clearly in the cup: expect red apple acidity, jasmine and floral aromatics, and a sweetness that lands somewhere between honey and honeycomb. it suits brewing methods that highlight clarity and sweetness, such as pour-over or aeropress, where the floral notes can open up without being muted. use a medium-fine grind, water around 93c, and a gentle pour to keep the fruit and florals in focus.
