Our authentic microlot is a JAVA 100%. This coffee was carefully hand-picked in order to use only the ripest cherries and after it has been harvested the coffee cherries are exposed to a dry anaerobic of 72 hours fermentation with pulp on. Then it is moved to grainpro bags below 20 degrees Celsius, in this environment bacteria feeds from carbohydrates and sugars from mucilage. This leads to a higher concentration of lactic acid.
Expect notes of papaya, hibiscus, banana, and melon.
