Oscar Orange Honey

This recipe was created by Oscar together with Lucas. They wanted to test the idea of making a co-fermented coffee using materials available on the farm, and it ended up becoming one of the best coffees Oscar has ever produced. From the very beginning, Oscar has shown great potential and intention when it comes to working with quality coffee, and this project has been one of his closest steps toward that vision. The result is a coffee with notes of mandarin lemon, white chocolate, and caramel. These flavors develop after adding blended leaves from the mandarin lemon tree once the coffee has been depulped. This allows the microorganisms to interact with the sugars in the coffee, creating a distinctive and expressive cup. It’s also something quite innovative for Sonsón — a region where coffee is traditionally sold in volume rather than through differentiated processing and flavor profiles.
