CUP PROFILE: Lemon Skittles • Lemon Verbena • Honeysuckle
This coffee bursts with an unmistakable lemon-candy aroma that’s bright, transportive, and impossible to miss from the first grind. In the cup, it opens with vibrant Lemon Skittles sweetness, layered with juicy mango-tangerine citrus and a refreshing structure that keeps the brightness clean rather than sharp.
As it cools, the profile softens into delicate honeysuckle and white-floral tones, with lingering lemon zest and gentle sweetness that keeps you coming back for another sip. It’s expressive, structured, and intensely aromatic — a lively washed-style profile with a playful candy-citrus twist.
About: Kawa here:
Origin: Colombia Region: Acevedo, Huila Farm: La Soledad + La Floresta Farmer: Mario Fernando Gomez Varietal: Caturra Processing: "Washed"
From Mario: "Culturing is one of the fermentation methods used by fermentists in other foods, in which a starter base rich in microorganisms is used to transform another product. At Fincas La Soledad and La Floresta, we have applied this technique to the fermentation of our coffee through a process known as culturing, where we prepare starter cultures and then mix them with the coffee during fermentation. Additionally, we use mosto —the liquid resulting from previous fermentations—as part of the process to enrich the microbiota and add greater complexity to the coffee’s sensory profile."
