About
A black honey lot from Ashenafi Getaneh's Aricha washing station, bought from Gerse smallholders and dried with its full mucilage on raised beds for 10 to 15 days. Low in funk and tea-like, with red grape acidity, dried tropical fruit, peach and cooked apple as it cools, and a lingering violet finish.
