This coffee is a compelling and intricately layered brew, evoking the delightful flavors of a festive fruitcake, the subtle warmth of whisky, and the enticing notes of figs and oranges. Its full-bodied richness is complemented by a sweet, fruity acidity that lingers on the palate.
Named 'Rosas' as part of Café Granja La Esperanza's annual auction, this lot of Mandela showcases the farm's finest flavors. The Hybrid washed process is as straightforward as it sounds: whole cherries undergo initial fermentation, followed by waterless depulping, a second fermentation stage, and finally, a full wash and mechanical drying.
What makes this coffee truly unique is its origin story. Developed by CGLE through a meticulous five-stage process, it started with self-pollination to ensure genetic purity, involving Caturra x Caturra. Further enhancements included crossing with Timor Hybrid to bolster resistance to coffee rust, and infusion with Ethiopian influences like Sudan Rume, Daleco, and Villa Sarchi.
