Cherry-Toned Coffee
23 coffees · 17 roasters
Cherry-toned coffees carry a bright, tart-sweet snap reminiscent of fresh or dried cherries — distinct from the broader stone fruit and berry categories, and a real tasting note rather than a reference to the coffee cherry (the fruit surrounding the green bean before processing). Common in washed lots with lively acidity, these cups lead with juicy, red-fruited brightness.
