Sebastian Ramirez and his crazy co-ferment
SO happy to be welcoming renown Colombian producer Sebastian Ramirez back onto the menu, featuring another wacky crazy coffee. This coffee is INTENSE, from the first smell of the bag, to the grinds and the bloom, this coffee will keep you sniffing.
Sebastian is a mad scientist when it comes to his processing. As with all good producers, this coffee starts with picking ripe cherry, which then goes through anaerobic fermentation in cherry for 120 hours with added wine yeast. The coffee is then depulped and fermented in mucilage for another 72 hours, injected with CO2, and Mango Pulp!
This process contributes to the coffee's punchy Mango candy-forward profile, with sweet candy cream egg, ripe peach, poppy limoncello, all wrapped around a nice balancing black tea note.
This coffee is amazing in a pour-over or Aeropress. It's for the brave on espresso, doable for sure, but it'll be punchy!
While we strive to send out coffee roasted the same week as the order, this coffee may be a week off roast when shipped. This will not compromise the flavour, as we have found that our coffee tastes best 2 weeks past the roast date. Coffee from our roaster likes to have some time to off-gas post roast. We are a small batch coffee roaster and we appreciate your understanding in this.
