Panama Finca Deborah – Aether

About The Coffee: Finca Deborah is shrouded in rainforest cloud coverage for much of the year. The extreme elevation and reduced temperature slows the metabolism of the trees. These cold temperatures, reaching 10 C, permit the trees to push more sugars into the cherries during production.

After the ripe Gesha cherries are harvested, they enter a carefully controlled fermentation process in argon-infused stainless steel tanks. This 50-hour journey, closely monitored for temperature and pH, ensures that only the most desirable aromas emerge. Once the cherries have reached their peak, they are washed and dried on a specialised three-tiered bed system, preserving the delicate complexities within.

After the required time inside nitrogen-infused tanks, the coffee is removed and placed on shaded, raised, African beds.
