This coffee was exposed to a dry aerobic fermentation of 24 hours, later placed inside grain pro bags for 90 hours maintaining a temperature below 22 ºC. In this environment, bacteria feed on carbohydrates and sugars from the mucilage leading to a higher concentration of lactic acid. Later placed on raised beds until 11% moisture content is achieved.
This micro-lot is 100% a natural mutation of Typica. Yellow cherries are demonstrated to be sweeter than red cherries and increase textile sensation in the final cup profile.
