About The Coffee:
This coffee is bold and full of character, bursting with ripe strawberry and tropical fruit notes like pawpaw. There’s a subtle spiced booziness reminiscent of rum, complemented by a rich sweetness and a hint of funk.
It’s a natural process coffee, fermented for 48 hours to highlight fruity flavours and achieve a balanced sweetness. After fermentation, the beans are sun-dried for eight days in mechanical silos, allowing them to absorb warmth and increase microbial activity. Once dried, the beans undergo a 35-day stabilisation in Grain Pro bags before being milled.
Included:
1x Yellow Bourbon Colombia Natural El Vergel - 200g Bag
IT STARTS WITH THE BEANS
No matter how good your grinder, coffee machine or kettle is if you don't have high quality coffee beans you aren't going to have a good tasting coffee.
COMMON COFFEE PROCESSES
-
WASHED PROCESS
TRY A WASHED COFFEEWashed coffees (aka wet process) use water to remove the coffee seed from the cherry. This has the least amount of contact with the fruit and has a clean and often creamy taste. Washed coffees are commonly known to carry more flavours from the origin, terroir and variety rather than the processing flavours.
-
NATURAL PROCESS
TRY A NATURAL COFFEENatural coffees were popularised by producing countries that did not have as much access to water, this processing technique has since been adopted all over the world and tends to carry through a rich fruity flavour from the extended contact with the coffee cherries,
-
FERMENTED
TRY A FERMENTED COFFEEThere are many coffees that fall into this third category of coffee processing, the most popular being Anaerobic fermentation and Carbonic Fermentation (CM).
Expect funky fruity notes and an intense alcohol / boozey taste

This coffee was really good, though a bit expensive. The free shipping was a nice touch and definitely made it worth the price.
