key lime
Key lime flavor in specialty coffee presents as a bright, tart citrus note with subtle tropical undertones and a distinctive acidic punch. This flavor profile is commonly found in coffees from Central American origins, particularly those processed with natural or honey methods that enhance fruity characteristics. The tartness and lime-forward acidity make it a sought-after descriptor in cupping notes, often paired with other citrus or stone fruit notes.
