We are super excited to bring you this coffee that has all the sweetness of a natural and the cleanness of a washed, from a family of producers leading the way as innovators in the speciality coffee world. The Peralta family are known for their attitudes and values to the process, while their carefully controlled, extended fermentations are to be admired.
A little about the process …
This lot was produced using natural process with an extended anaerobic fermentation. First, ripe cherries are sorted and washed. Afterward, they are introduced into airtight 450L tanks to ferment for up to 72 hours in an anaerobic environment. To lower the temperature down to approximately 15 Celsius, the tanks are placed inside water-filled fermenting pools to slow the fermentation and avoid spoilage or risk of taints for up to 72 hours.
Finca El Bosque is the perfect example of an innovative and controlled process resulting in one deliciously sweet coffee.
