Experimental Process Specialty Coffee Beans
This amazing coffee is held in low-oxygen tanks for 72 hours then the “mosto" (coffee cherry juice runoff) is collected and “Galaxy” Hops are added and left to activate for 24 hours. It is reincorporated to the coffee in parchment. (Galaxy hops is where the perceived “lychee” flavor comes from). The Coffee spends 228 more hours of fermentation in low oxygen tanks, with the liquid being recirculated every 48 hours. Sun Dried for another 15 days.
Single-Origin Coffee Beans Roasting Notes
Roasted to a light to medium level with and emphasis on stretching the mallard phase to enhance sweetness. Our goal with this coffee was to create an approachable entryway to more acidic coffees. The longer middle phase of roasting will help round out the acidity by balancing it with jam like sweetness.
