GOLD WET FERMENTATION

This coffee processing journey consists of two fermentation processes - Fermentation starts with low-oxygen, in-cherry fermentation where cherry juice run-offs (called mosto) is collected.

During the second stage of fermentation, the captured golden juice is filtered, combined with lactic bacteria, and reintroduced into the de-pulped coffee beans, initiating the 5 day-long controlled anaerobic fermentation process. During this stage, lactic bacteria eats the sugar of the coffee cherry and creates NADH, which stores as an energy source in the seed, allowing a faster roast that can take the heat. This directly results in intense floral and juicy citrus notes in the brewed cup making it a one-of-a-kind of coffee to grind and drink.
