Black Tucano Honey Coffee Kit - Single-Origin Honey Process from Espírito Santo, Brazil

Discover a refined specialty coffee experience with the Black Tucano Honey Coffee Kit, a curated way to explore the nuanced sweetness and layered aromatics of Brazil’s high-altitude terroir. Centered around a 250g bag of Black Tucano Honey Roasted Coffee, this kit showcases a meticulously crafted single-origin lot from Sítio Alto Santa Joana in Afonso Cláudio, Espírito Santo. Grown by producer Waldir Manske at 1,100 meters and processed using the Honey (Pulped Natural) method, it’s a cup that delivers clarity, sweetness, and depth-scoring above 86 points on the SCA scale. Expect a velvety mouthfeel with notes of cane molasses, honey, and sun-warmed raspberry, all balanced by a medium, rounded acidity that invites sip after sip.

What’s Included in the Coffee Kit

• 250g of freshly roasted single-origin coffee from Yellow Caturra, sourced from Espírito Santo, Brazil
• Origin and tasting card to guide your sensory exploration
• Step-by-step brewing tips crafted for pour-over, immersion, and espresso

Whether you’re dialing in a bright morning pour-over or building a syrupy espresso, this coffee kit is an invitation to slow down, brew with intention, and enjoy the purity of a beautifully grown and roasted coffee.

Origin & Craft: From Espírito Santo to Your Cup

At Sítio Alto Santa Joana, producer Waldir Manske tends Yellow Caturra trees set against the rolling hills of Espírito Santo’s Afonso Cláudio. The altitude of 1,100 meters nurtures slower cherry maturation, concentrating sugars and complexity. After harvest, cherries are pulped and dried with their mucilage intact in the Honey process-a technique that encourages gentle fermentation, elevating natural sweetness without overshadowing terroir. The result is a cup that feels polished yet vibrant: clean, expressive, and unmistakably Brazilian.

Roasted by Black Tucano Coffee Roasters with meticulous care, this lot honors craft at every step-small-batch profiles tuned to highlight its velvety body and cascading sweetness. Think of it as a love letter to coffee grown with intention and roasted with restraint.

Tasting Profile: Sweetness Forward, Silky and Balanced

• Aroma: Brown sugar warmth with subtle florals
• Flavor: Cane molasses, golden honey, and ripe raspberry
• Body: Velvety and round
• Acidity: Medium, gentle, and well-integrated
• Finish: Lingering sweetness, soft red-fruit echo

This is a versatile specialty coffee that sings across brewing methods. The Honey process offers a supple texture that’s indulgent in milk drinks and remarkably articulate as a black cup. Each sip opens like a well-structured melody-molasses bass notes, juicy berry midtones, and a honeyed treble that lingers.

Brewing Guidance for a Beautiful Cup

Dial in flavor with a few simple principles: fresh grind, filtered water, and patient extraction. Use these starting points and adjust to taste.

Pour-Over (V60, Kalita, or Similar)

• Ratio: 1:16 (20g coffee to 320g water)
• Grind: Medium-fine, like table salt
• Water: 200°F / 93°C
• Time: 2:45–3:15

Expect a crystalline cup that emphasizes raspberry brightness and honeyed sweetness. If the finish feels a touch sharp, grind slightly coarser or extend your bloom to 45 seconds to round it out.

Immersion (French Press, AeroPress)

• French Press: 1:15, coarse grind, 4 minutes, gentle plunge
• AeroPress: 15g coffee, 225g water, 2-minute steep, 30-second press

Immersion methods showcase the velvety body and cane molasses depth. For AeroPress, a paper filter will keep the cup clean and juicy; a metal filter leans richer and more tactile.

Espresso

• Recipe: 18g in, 36–40g out in 27–32 seconds
• Profile: Syrupy shot with honey sweetness, soft red fruit, and a balanced, medium acidity

As a straight espresso, it’s plush and approachable. In milk, expect a caramel-honey throughline with a hint of raspberry that peeks through flat whites and cappuccinos.

Why This Coffee Stands Out

• Single-origin Arabica: Yellow Caturra from a defined plot in Espírito Santo
• Honey (Pulped Natural) process: Elevates sweetness and complexity while preserving clarity
• SCA score above 86: Recognized for excellence in balance, cleanliness, and flavor
• Craft roasting: Small-batch profiles that honor and texture

Traceability matters. Knowing the producer and place isn’t just about provenance-it’s about respect for craft and the stewardship behind every cup. This coffee reflects mindful agriculture and careful processing, resulting in a cup that’s both comforting and quietly stunning.

Sustainability & Care

By focusing on transparent sourcing, this kit celebrates the long arc of quality-from farm to roastery to your kettle. Honey processing uses less water than fully washed methods, a thoughtful step toward resource efficiency. While certifications aren’t the measure of all things, relationships built on fair pricing and quality incentives help secure a future where exceptional coffee can thrive.

Freshness, Storage, and Roast

Your 250g bag is roasted to highlight sweetness and structure. For peak expression, allow the coffee to rest 5–10 days post-roast, then enjoy within six weeks. Store in a cool, dry place in its resealable bag; avoid the fridge or freezer to prevent condensation. Grind just before brewing for the most aromatic, expressive cup.

Who It’s For

• Home brewers who appreciate clean, sweet, and fruit-accented specialty coffee
• Espresso enthusiasts seeking balance and syrupy texture
• Gifting moments where craft and story matter

Whether you’re new to single-origin coffees or chasing nuanced sweetness, the Black Tucano Honey Coffee Kit offers a guided path to a deeply satisfying cup.

Bring Home a Satisfying Sweetness

If you’re drawn to coffees that are honest and expressive-sweet without heaviness, structured without austerity-this kit was built for your morning ritual. Savor the cane molasses and honey tones, the velvet on your palate, and the whisper of raspberry that reminds you where it was grown and who grew it.
