El Placer Black Honey Wush Wush

About This Coffee

This coffee is a Wush Wush variety from the El Placer farm in Quindío, Colombia, grown at an altitude of 1200-2100 meters. It is processed using a Black Honey method, which involves retaining a high proportion of mucilage during an extended anaerobic fermentation. This process results in a light roast with a complex flavor profile featuring notes of plum, tamarind, and black pepper. The coffee is noted for its vibrant fruit character, clarity, and rich body.
