A honey-processed Caturra from Aponte, the reserve of the Inga people in El Tablón de Gómez, northern Nariño. Inga families grow it at around 2,150 metres; the ripe cherries are pulped and the beans dried with their sticky fruit layer still on.

Two roasts. For filter, roasted light: red apple, orange and honey, with a cacao finish. For espresso, roasted a little further, to stand up in milk: caramel, honey and nougat.

Give it a week, then follow it.

A light roast keeps releasing carbon dioxide for days after roasting; brewed too early, it extracts unevenly and tastes muted. Give it at least seven days from roasting. After that it keeps changing from one day to the next, and following it through the bag is part of the pleasure.
