Honduras: 18 Rabbit Black, Marcala

Named for Uaxaclajuun Ub’aah K’awiil— “18 Rabbit,” the Classic Maya ruler of Copán—this Organic microlot showcases Honduras’s modern honey‑process craft. Ripe cherries are depulped and dried with a full layer of mucilage (black honey), turned sparingly to concentrate sugars and deepen fruit complexity while keeping clarity intact. Roasted to a measured medium, the cup centers on caramelized sugar and milk chocolate over a tidy cocoa line, with red‑berry and stone‑fruit accents for lift. Acidity reads medium and composed; the mouthfeel is silky and cohesive. Expect a clean, sweet finish with lingering berry‑cocoa resonance—refined and expressive.
