Ethiopia Chelchele Washed 65% × Colombia Santa Monica Watermelon Co-Ferment 35% Melon Mayhem is Sunlit Nectar's louder, fruitier cousin. Same backbone: 65% Ethiopia Chelchele Grade 1 Washed, bringing jammy apricot, mellow brown sugar sweetness and that juicy Ethiopian acidity that stays bright without turning sharp. Then we push the co-ferment to 35% — Jairo Arcila's Castillo from Santa Mónica, fermented for 48 hours with fresh watermelon. The name is a warning. The cup is not. The Ratio Matters Sunlit Nectar sits at 25% co-ferment, where it behaves like a precision flavour enhancer. At 35%, the watermelon stops being a suggestion and becomes the headline. We pulled the roast back to match. Less development means less toast and less cocoa, so the fruit gets the room it was asking for. Who It's For Anyone who tasted Sunlit Nectar and thought: more fruit, please. Milk drinkers who want a flat white that tastes like Turkish delight. Filter brewers — roasted omni, it holds up black.
