This is a special batch with an experimental fermentation process. The quick lactic fermentation allows for the growth of lactic acid bacteria under anaerobic conditions with oxygen restriction and high temperature. The bacteria feed on the sugar present in the mucilage, generating a high concentration of lactic acid. After reaching the desired PH level, the coffee is washed in clean water to stop the growth of bacteria and sun dried on patios and drying beds until 11% humidity. This coffee has been imported by our ethical importer partners, Colombian Artisan Coffee who paid to the farmer 250% more than the coffee market price.
