I Want Candy - Colombia Papayo

Highlights

“We taste notes of wildflower honey, strawberry candy, and white gummy bears. Coffee so sweet, it'll make your mouth water. We are starry-eyed for this Papayo variety microlot from María Belén Díaz of Finca Resinas. Originating in Colombia's Huila region, Papayo is a rare and coveted Arabica variety distinguished by its elongated cherries and seeds that look kinda like itty bitty papayas. Its vibrant, tropical fruit-forward cup profile has made it a favorite among specialty coffee enthusiasts and competition roasters alike. This lot's candy-sweet flavor profile opens with a floral honey base, lifts into bright strawberry candy notes, and finishes with the playful sweetness of white gummy bears / candied pineapple. Roast level: Light. Origin: Colombia. Region: Acevedo, Huila. Producer: María Belén Díaz. Altitude: 1800 meters. Variety: Papayo. Process: washed with an anaerobic pre-fermentation.”
