Kima Coffee

About This Coffee

This coffee is from Campo Hermoso farm in Circasia, Quindío, Colombia, at 1,750-1,900 meters altitude. Produced by Edwin Noreña, a fourth-generation farmer known for experimental coffees. The Sidra variety undergoes a Black Honey process with carbonic maceration. Cherries are harvested at over 23 brix sugar content, submerged in water for 5 hours, then undergo 96-hour initial carbonic maceration. After depulping with all mucilage retained, a second 48-hour anaerobic fermentation follows with must recirculation containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast, glucose, and amino acids. Sun-dried on African beds for approximately 15 days to 10.5% humidity, then stabilized for 8 days with dry pulp. Flavor notes include pineapple, mango, starfruit, and eucalyptus.
