Costa Rica - Aquiares - Thermic Fermentation

This is a limited run specialty coffee comes from the Aquiares estate in Costa Rica which has undergone a new processing method known as Thermic Fermentation . 

Thermic Fermentation processing at Aquiares begins with sorting the freshly harvested cherries via floatation. The dense fruit is then wrapped in heat-capturing heavy duty plastic that is sealed so that no oxygen can enter. These wrapped cylinders are then placed into the greenhouses at Aquiares where they are heated by the sun to promote thermophilic fermentation. Cherries are fermented in this environment for a minimum of three days. After fermentation, cherries are sun-dried for 15 days before being sealed into bags for three months of resting.

This a special coffee has complex notes such as sweet wine aroma, mild floral, strawberry yogurt, pineapple brightness, juicy, silky body and a clean finish.
