Colombia | Sierra Nevada FTO
Quickly becoming a new best-seller, this bean from Colombia has been blowing us away! Roasted to a full-medium it is packed with a full body, lively acidity, and bursting with sweetness—we have yet to find someone who doesn't enjoy this coffee. We have loved it in all preparations, however, it really shines as a single origin espresso or as a cold brew! It is one of the primary components of our current Knockbox Espresso Blend. Here's a word from the importer on this particular cooperative coffee: Colombia Sierra Nevada TAYRONACA Fairtrade Organic is handpicked to ensure uniformly ripe cherry is processed. That cherry is machine pulped to 1% mucilage, which then undergoes 20 hours of aerobic fermentation. Coffee drying is done by different methods; 50% is sun dried, 20% is raised beds dried and approximately 30% is dried mechanically. Subsequently drying time also varies depending on the method: 4-7 days when dried in the sun, up to 10 days in raised beds and up to 28 hours when dried
