Green Bean

Washed Process – Single Estate Catuai:

This 100% Single Estate Catuai was processed using the classic washed method: after an overnight natural fermentation, the beans were washed and sun-dried. This lot offers a classic profile with a clean cup and structured acidity. Expect notes of dried fruit and citrus with a smooth, clean finish.

Roasting Notes:

For best results, aim for a light to medium roast to highlight the crisp acidity and dried fruit character. A dark roast may mute these qualities and lead to a more generic profile—so roast thoughtfully to enjoy the clarity this washed Catuai has to offer.

Inoculated Process – Single Estate Catuai:

This 100% Single Estate Catuai was processed using a yeast-inoculated method. After pulping, the beans underwent a dry fermentation with Vin 13 yeast for 114 hours, followed by washing and sun-drying. This method brings out a fruity-floral-winey fragrance, light sweetness, and a long, juicy finish.

Roasting Notes:

We recommend exploring light to medium roast levels to fully appreciate the complexity and nuance brought out by the inoculated fermentation. Darker roasts may mask the delicate florals and winey acidity that make this coffee so special.
