Story behind Green Panama Black Honey (0.5 kg / 1.1 lb)

The honey process is one of the most intricate and expressive methods of fermenting coffee. At La Huella, our black honey processed coffee highlights the terroir while preserving the unique character of Panama’s Cup profile. Unlike naturally processed coffees, honey-processed coffee retains more of the cherry’s natural sweetness, enhancing the rich flavor and depth of our Black Honey coffee. The result before you is a multi-award-winning specialty coffee that captivates the senses with its sweet, complex notes and smooth, full body.

Processing method

Honey process

This method involves removing only the pulp of the coffee cherries after harvest. Once the pulp is removed, a sticky, sugary layer — known as the “honey” — remains on the cherry, giving the process its name. The cherries are then moved directly to bamboo drying beds, where they dry in the sun. Throughout drying, the beans must be turned regularly to ensure even drying.

Honey-processed coffees often show pronounced sweetness and complexity, thanks to the honey layer that stays in contact with the bean during drying. In the cup, they typically have a fuller body than washed coffees yet remain cleaner than naturally processed coffees.
