Introducing Sugar + Spice!
An innovative and incredibly unique Yellow Bourbon varietal that has been sourced from the Los Nogales farm in Pitalito, Colombia.
Los Nogales is an 80-year-old farm run by Oscar Hernández. Oscar took over the farm from his father, Ricaurte, in 2013. He has carried on his father's dedication to innovation and has transformed it into a modern-day production center producing high-quality coffee while emphasizing research, technological innovation, and ecological conservation. The folks at Los Nogales are producing some of the most tasty and exciting coffees we've tasted.
The coffee cherries are handpicked at the peak ripeness and floated to remove defects and ensure quality. The coffee is then depulped and fermented anaerobically for 120 hours in hermetic tanks using Mosto, a liquid by-product of coffee fermentation that contains a vibrant microbial population of bacteria and yeasts. Mosto reduces fermentation time and enhances the coffee's complexity and flavor.
The end result is a very luscious, sweet and balanced brew that remind us of Jamaica Ginger Cake. This is a coffee you do not want to miss!
