From the roaster

A washed Chiroso from the Urrao region, grown by a group of producers there. Chiroso is a Colombian name for a variety that traces back to Ethiopia, and it shows in the cup: this drinks closer to a washed Ethiopian than to most Colombians, with honey, lemon peel, and rhubarb running through it. One of the washed coffees we've come back to most this year. This used to be called Honeymoon. We renamed it once Honey Burst joined the lineup, since two honey names at once was asking for trouble on the packing and dispatching floor.

Dayglow

Context

Juice Box comes from a group of producers in Urrao, Colombia, a region known for its diverse microclimates and coffee traditions. Dayglow has selected this washed Chiroso varietal and brought out bright, candy-like character in the cup—honey sweetness paired with tart lemon peel and subtle rhubarb notes. The washed process typically emphasizes clarity and acidity, allowing the varietal's inherent flavors to shine through. This lot offers a well-defined sensory profile that balances sweetness with crisp fruit brightness, making it approachable for those seeking clarity without heaviness.
