Sensory Experience
orange & citrus nutmeg cocoa powder orange blossom
"Vibrant and clean. A juicy profile driven by orange citrus and floral notes, supported by a warm nutmeg spice and a structured cocoa finish."
🔥 Roaster's Insight
  • Honey process: The cherry pre-ferment followed by mucilage drying adds body without muddying the citrus clarity. Medium charge temps preserve the orange blossom top notes.
  • Result: A juicy, structured cup that rewards a light-to-medium roast profile.

About this Coffee

Blood Orange comes from Natalia Zuluaga's lot at Finca El Caney in Belén de Umbría, a Pink Bourbon processed as a cherry-fermented honey to amplify its natural citrus character.

The 24h pre-ferment in cherry followed by drying with mucilage intact produces a juicy, structured cup with a distinctive cocoa finish.
