From the roaster

Tastes Like - Pomegranate, Pink Guava and Golden Raisins Roasting Profile - Filter ( Light Roast ) Process - Saccharomyces 72hrs Naturals Varietal - Sl 9 Altitude - 1280 MASL Producer Name - Aveen and Yogita Rodrigues Harvest Year - 2025 Coffee Producers Note - Red, fully ripe cherries with a Brix level above 22 are selectively handpicked and carefully cleaned using a water bath to remove impurities and lighter fruit. The cherries then undergo anaerobic fermentation in sealed drums for 72 hours, allowing complex flavours to develop. Post-fermentation, they are transferred to raised wooden drying beds and dried slowly under shade nets. During this stage, the cherries are regularly raked to ensure even and consistent drying. Once fully dried, they are packed into gunny bags and rested for 60 days, allowing the flavours to stabilise and mature before further processing. Roasters Note - We’ve taken this coffee light to preserve its vibrancy and showcase the fruit character developed during fermentation. Expect a bright, expressive cup with juicy acidity and a clean, lingering sweetness.In the cup:Pomegranate leads with a fresh, winey brightness, followed by soft pink guava and a rounded golden raisin sweetness on the finish. The body is smooth and supple, with a crisp yet balanced aftertaste.Best enjoyed when brewed clean and slightly cooler to let the fruit open up gradually.
