About this coffee :

Finca El Paraíso's unique coffee processing technique remains widely misunderstood. As both pioneer and sole practitioner of yeast-mediated biocatalysis in coffee processing, the farm has carved out a distinctive niche. This scientific approach delivers two remarkable benefits: it creates coffees with extraordinary flavour profiles while guaranteeing consistent, repeatable results at commercial scale, harvest after harvest.

Y-05 Process

1. Harvesting

The process starts with the careful harvesting of coffee cherries at their optimal ripeness.

2. Disinfection

The cherries are disinfected with ozone before being transferred to the fermentation tanks.

3. Anaerobic Fermentation

The cherries undergo a 72-hour anaerobic fermentation process, submerged in water.

4. Pulping and Demucilagination

After fermentation, the coffee is pulped and demucilaginated. The mucilage and pulp are processed to produce specific microorganisms and a culture medium containing aroma and flavour precursors.

5. Fermentation Enhancement

The culture medium is added to fermentation tanks for 36 hours, allowing the precursors to bind to the coffee beans under pressure.

6. Thermal Shock

A thermal shock process is applied to further fix the precursors and prepare the coffee for drying.

7. Drying

The coffee is dried in a dehumidifier to preserve its delicate notes, prevent over-oxidation, and stop metabolic processes to avoid overfermentation.

8. Stabilization and Storage

The coffee is then stabilized and stored in a cool place.

9. Selection and Threshing

Finally, the beans are selected and threshed according to quality standards.

This coffee is out of the world. Exceptional vibrancy of strawberry aromatics that will make the room like strawberry farm, apricot mid tone and finish with hints of floral. This is the type of coffee that you wanna slowly sip it in the evening. Makes the perfect iced coffee too!
