Kima Coffee

About This Coffee

This coffee is a rare Liberica from the Quang Tri region in Vietnam, produced by 96B at 600 meters altitude. The coffee undergoes a natural anaerobic fermentation process for 120 hours, followed by 30 days of slow drying on shaded raised beds. The Liberica species offers a distinctive cup profile with unique flavors of jackfruit, guava, vanilla, and wine. The coffee contains approximately half the caffeine of Arabica, providing a lighter intensity experience. This exceptional lot represents one of the finest examples of specialty Liberica, a species representing less than 1% of global coffee production.
