About this coffee...

 

Its a fun example of how blending can be more than the sum of its parts and we plan on making more house made creations such as this. It takes its nose and big body from the Colombian component and its elegant, clean, ripe acidity fro the Ethiopian component. Together they make for an experience we often look for but never find in SO coffees. we hope you enjoy

This coffee was grown by Jairo Arcila at the farm Santa Mónica. This coffee was exposed to a dry anaerobic fermentation period of 72 hours with the pulp on. During this fermentation stage, lychee and wine yeast were added. The cherries were then pulped and placed to dry on raised beds until the ideal moisture content was achieved.
This microlot is 100% Castillo. 

The nose on this coffee will make you reevaluate what you think coffee as an experience is capable of prodising you.
