Behind the beans
This Colombian lot is all about pushing flavour to the edge. Ripe cherries are hand-sorted before beginning a layered fermentation process - starting with pre-fermentation in sealed bags, followed by fermentation in cherry.
Origin: Columbia
After depulping, the beans undergo a five-day anaerobic co-fermentation with watermelon, amplifying the natural sweetness of the honey process.

| Altitude: | 1750 MASL |
This blend of Caturra and Colombia varieties begins with a 48-hour pre-fermentation in plastic bags under anaerobic conditions, allowing complex flavours to form.
The result is a wildly expressive cup: juicy watermelon, crisp green apple, and a bright, tangy sweetness that might remind you of sour sweets.
