This flavor is commonly found in coffees processed using natural or honey methods, particularly in East African origins like Ethiopia and Kenya, where berry-forward profiles are enhanced by extended fermentation. The candy aspect suggests a concentrated sweetness with reduced acidity, often achieved through controlled fermentation that amplifies the fruit sugars while maintaining the distinctive watermelon-candy character.
