Rafael Amaya Colombia - Extended Fermentation Washed
NOTES FROM THE ROASTERY:
"We stumbled across this coffee on the cupping table one afternoon and it really has a clear, defined flavour. It’s also very juicy! We’re loving all these new innovative processing methods, especially coming out of Colombia. We currently have this Extended Fermentation Washed process and the Extended Fermentation Natural (called ‘Maracay’) in our line up. We’re no processing experts but it’s clear to us that the extended fermentation is doing wonders to some of these already delicious coffees. Stay tuned for a tasting event featuring both of these extended fermentation coffees side by side!"
