Honey
Honey Process — Visual Guide (Left to Right)
1. Red Honey – Higher mucilage content, resulting in a syrupy body, intense sweetness, and notes of ripe red fruit. Carefully dried under shade to avoid overfermentation.
2. Black Honey – Maximum mucilage, slow-dried with minimal airflow, producing bold, winey cups with deep fruit and spice complexity. The most intense of all honey styles.
3. Green Honey – Medium mucilage with a quicker, more ventilated drying curve. Tends to be brighter and fruit-forward, with crisp acidity and tropical notes.
4. Yellow (Regular) Honey – Balanced mucilage, clean drying process. Produces a sweet, rounded cup with stone fruit and floral tones. Often used for consistency and clarity.
5. White Honey – Minimal mucilage, the cleanest and lightest version. Offers delicate florals, soft sweetness, and a tea-like body, closest to washed cup characteristics.

Natural Whole cherries are sun-dried on raised beds using our 3-stage model to control temperature, airflow, and moisture loss. This prevents rehydration and creates clean, fruit-driven cups. Cup Style: Berry, tropical fruit, chocolate. Bold, expressive, and full-bodied—especially with Marsellesa-Geisha and Anacafé 14. Drying Time: 20–28 days under managed shade conditions Frequent movement to avoid fermentation buildup
Natural
$370.00 – $5,735.00
Full-bodied and fruit-forward, our natural coffee brings vibrant notes of ripe berries and dark chocolate, sun-dried in the cherry for bold complexity and sweetness.
Description
Our natural process coffee is dried inside the whole cherry, allowing the fruit’s natural sugars and flavors to infuse deeply into the bean. This slow sun-drying method enhances sweetness, body, and aroma, resulting in a cup bursting with ripe berries, hints of dark chocolate, and a wine-like finish.
It’s an expressive and adventurous profile — ideal for those who appreciate depth, intensity, and a bit of wild beauty in their brew.
