About Process
In the Matas de Minas region, the honey process is embraced as a method to enhance the flavor complexity of coffee beans. This process involves carefully depulping the coffee cherries while leaving some of the sticky mucilage intact, resembling honey. The beans are then dried with this mucilage layer still attached, imparting a unique sweetness and depth to the cup.
This method is favored for its ability to highlight the inherent qualities of the beans while adding layers of complexity, resulting in coffees with nuanced flavor profiles ranging from delicate floral notes to rich caramel sweetness. In the Matas de Minas region, where innovation and tradition intersect, the honey process adds yet another dimension to the diverse range of exceptional coffees produced.
