About this coffee

Passiona completes the Reserve line. Pink Bourbon from DARU Farm is honey processed and treated with a method Darveris Rivas calls “Thermal Shock Must”. In the catalogue, the profile carries the code MY02.

In the cup, tropical fruit and sweetness meet: papaya and passion fruit, caramel and walnut, plus floral notes and honey. A bright acidity, a silky body and a lingering aftertaste round off the profile. When you send your enquiry, we ask the producer about availability and harvest status.

More about the producer

Processing

The designation in the catalogue and what the method means in general.

producer’s designation
Honey, Thermal Shock Must
Honey
After pulping, part of the mucilage stays on the parchment and dries with it. The sticky, sugary mucilage stays partly or largely on the seed and dries with it. Honey is the name of the method and does not mean that bee honey is added.
Thermal Shock Must
A must with a deliberate temperature change, by the method’s name. The catalogue gives no temperatures. Thermal shock describes a change of temperature. The catalogue names the method but neither the order of warm and cold nor a temperature programme. There is no single international recipe for it.
