Tarrazú yellow honey
Tarrazú yellow honey—panela sweet, orange zest snap
Price
From $40 / 250g
Yellow honey Tarrazú—juicy body, citrus top notes, honey without the sticky cliché.
Traceable day-lot from main harvest; we roast to keep orange zest audible over the sweetness. Great gateway honey if someone’s only had washed Centrals.

- Juicy body
Provenance & cup
Tarrazú microlot, yellow honey process—mucilage left on just enough to build panela sweetness without red-honey pulp drama. ~1,780–2,050 m. We slot it experimental when we want a Central American that feels like sunshine and spreadsheets at once.
Sensory & service
Orange zest oil on the nose, panela in the sip, juicy rounded acidity. Body is silky; sweetness holds through cooling like simple syrup hiding in tea. We recommend tasting filter-first to map acidity and sweetness before exploring espresso service—our roast is tuned to reward precise brew ratios and filtered water in the 90–110 ppm TDS range.

Dialed in nicely after one tweak
I brewed Tarrazú yellow honey twice before writing this. First cup was already good; a slightly finer grind made it click. Orange zest oil on the nose, panela in the sip, juicy rounded acidity The finish stayed tidy as it cooled.

Clear cup, easy to serve to guests
Served Tarrazú yellow honey to guests over Filter / Espresso and it was easy to explain in the cup. The notes were readable without feeling forced. I’d reorder this for small dinners.

Good lot with real personality
Tarrazú yellow honey has real character but still behaves predictably. It didn’t need dramatic dialing in, just normal adjustments. Pleasantly surprised by how clean the cup stayed.
