Tasting Notes
Christmas Pudding, Cooked Fruits, Gingerbread
We think we found the perfect coffee to accompany Santa's cookies, and to amaze any other coffee lover in your life (including yourself).
Taking inspiration from some of our recent smashers like bubblegum, school cake and watermelon, Xmas brings you all the happiness of Christmas in liquid form.
In the cup we get cooked down fruits like Christmas pudding with gingerbread and a just enough of a juicy body to keep you coming back for more.
This is the first time we have sourced a Chiroso varietal. We have come across many but none that we liked as much as this one.
Farmer Jonathan Alexis Delgado Zúñiga took great care with this lot and used many techniques to bring out all the flavour the coffee had to offer. A washed finished coffee, the pulped cherry is left to ferment in an oxygen rich environment for around 36 hours before being swapped to an anaerobic environment for a further 80 hours.
During the final washing process the coffee is washed with 50°c water before being submerged and left to cool to room temperature.
After washing it is then dried in covered areas with dehumidifiers to precisely control the drying process and leave all the delicate flavours intact.
