 stone fruit

stone fruit
===========

Stone fruit flavors in specialty coffee are often described as having a sweet, juicy, and sometimes slightly tart character reminiscent of peaches, apricots, or plums. This flavor profile is commonly found in coffees from East African origins, such as Ethiopia and Kenya, as well as some Latin American regions, and is often associated with natural or honey processing methods.
