COFFEE PROFILE
Marzen is a rich and overly creamy experimental processed coffee. The yeast addition encourages a more lactic sensation to the tropical and ripe yellow stone fruit characters with a botanical floral tone and sweet baked apple quality in the finish.

SOURCING
Marzen was inspired by the craft beer fermentation process, which undergoes different fermentation stages. Rodrigo tried different temperatures with a fermentation mix to recreate similar notes. The verdict was to process in anaerobic metal tanks with half of the coffee cherries fermented without water for 100 hours with a specific yeast strain. The remaining half was fermented for 100 hours in the same tank style but with a different yeast.
