Why Choose Red Honey?
Artisanal Craftsmanship:
Produced in Pandi, Cundinamarca, Red Honey reflects the mastery of Fabio Rincon, who oversees each step to maintain exceptional quality.
Semi-Washed (Honey) Processing Method:
This coffee undergoes the semi-washed (honey) process, where only part of the coffee cherry is removed, leaving some mucilage on the bean during drying. This sticky, sugary layer infuses the beans with natural sweetness. As the beans dry, they absorb the fruit's sugars, enhancing their fruity and nutty flavors. The honey process strikes a balance between the clarity of washed coffees and the rich body of natural-processed ones.
