Tasting NotesTasting notesThe flavors a roaster perceives in the cup — 'jasmine, apricot, black tea'. Descriptive associations, not ingredients: nothing is added to the coffee.: Kiwi-fruit, guava, lychee & cherry bomb! Region: Finca Los Primos, Santa Barbara Varietal: Pacas Process: NaturalNatural processThe whole cherry is dried with the fruit still on the seed. Gives heavier body and big fruit flavors — think berries and wine — sometimes with a fermenty edge. Recipe: Espresso - 1:2.5 Filter - 1:17 About the farm: We did it…and it’s bloody fantastic! We turned Manuel’s fruit driven beast of a coffee into a natural process and it has transformed! Another triumph for 2018! The first ever natural processed Pacas from the mysterious cloud covered farm of Finca Los Primos. It’s another world up here. Super slow maturation occurs here where coffee cherries build up a super high sugar content in this cool climate. This result is an exotic tropical fruit fiesta! Kiwi-fruit, guava, lychee, cherry…the list is endless. With having achieved this result, we foresee this as a potential candidate for Cup of ExcellenceCup of Excellence (COE)A national competition and auction that identifies a country's best lots each year; winning 'COE' lots command dramatic price premiums. 2019! This will act as an advocate for the quality of coffee in the region of El Cielito, Santa Barbara. Roasting days: Proud Mary roast Monday-Friday during normal business hours. To ensure freshness of coffee, best to order early in the week as postal services and couriers do not operate on weekends.
