INTRO

A deeply textured, intensely sweet Wush Wush from Sebastián Ramírez at El Placer Farms in Quindío. Carbonic maceration applied to a black honey process builds extraordinary complexity — vivid pineapple and juicy blood orange, with a floral undercurrent that lifts it throughout.

THE PROCESS

A carbonic maceration black honey process: cherries undergo controlled fermentation in a CO₂-rich environment before being pulped and dried with a portion of the mucilage intact, combining the aromatic intensity of carbonic maceration with the sweetness and body that honey processing delivers.

THE CUP

Bold, sweet, and tropical — a Wush Wush that announces itself immediately and keeps rewarding. Exactly the kind of experimental lot that makes Quindío one of Colombia's most exciting growing regions right now.
