How does it taste
Yara selected this coffee during his visit in Bolivia last September. It was one of the highest scored coffee of all samples tasted (88,75 points). The intensity of flavors (yellow fruits, citruses) given by the geisha variety and thick, juicy mouthfeel, caused by natural processing with prolonged fermentation in stainless steel tanks, was truly exceptional.
Rodriguez family - pioneers of specialty coffee in Bolivia
Geisha
This geisha was processed using the natural method with prolonged anaerobic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. After picking, the cherries were first washed and floated, then left in stainless steel tanks without access to oxygen for approx. 48 hours. Afterwards, they were dried for 30 hours in special hot air dryers at a temperature of 40°C to a final moisture content of 11 %. This drying system is advantageous mainly because of the controlled environment and the possibility to influence the resulting taste by the speed of the drying time. The Rodriguez family uses industrial dehydrators manufactured for fruit industry.
The best way to nejoy this coffee is with V60.
