About this lot
The process of the Rocket Flower coffee from El Paseo farm in Nariño begins with the careful selection of ripe Caturra cherries, ensuring exceptional quality. The cherries undergo a 36-hour pre-fermentation in cherry, followed by a floating and disinfection process using sea salt at 2% of the total water in the hopper. The beans are then subjected to anaerobic fermentation in stainless steel tanks with regulated relief valves. After moving to a second hopper and being pulped, leachates are collected and 200 liters are used per fermentation tank with the additions of enzymes to promote an specific floral profile. Each tank, holding up to 2,800 kilos of coffee, ferments the coffee for 6 days, developing a complex flavor profile. The beans are then mechanically dried in a silo for 2-3 days at temperatures below 38 degrees, ensuring ideal moisture levels. A 15-day stabilization period follow
