Manta Ray Coffee RoastersAbout This Coffee
This single origin coffee is from the Cerrado Mineiro region of Brazil, produced by Rafael Vinhal at 980 meters elevation. The varieties are Yellow Catucai and Red Catuai. The coffee undergoes anaerobic natural processing, where mechanically harvested cherries are washed, sorted for ripeness, then placed in dry anaerobic fermentation for 96-158 hours before thermal shock treatment and patio drying for 16-21 days. The cup profile features guava, ripe kiwi, and almond notes. Rafael's farms, Recanto and Estrela, are certified by Rainforest Alliance, 4C, and Certifica Minas.
