Colombia El Vergel Estate Golden Berries | Single Origin Coffee

35 AUD

From the visionary minds of Elías and Shady Bayter comes a coffee that redefines the expectations of a Colombian Natural. Grown at the renowned El Vergel Estate, this Pink Bourbon lot is a vibrant celebration of "Yellow Fruits"—balancing a bright, citrusy acidity with a deep, honey-like sweetness. This selection represents the pinnacle of specialty coffee in Melbourne, designed for those who value innovation and rare varietals. Experimental Specialty Processing: 96-Hour Anaerobic Fermentation This Pink Bourbon undergoes a 96-hour anaerobic fermentation in whole cherry, carried out in sealed tanks without oxygen to intensify fruit expression and aromatic complexity, resulting in a Natural Anaerobic process. After fermentation, the cherries are gently transferred to raised beds where they are slowly dried with the fruit intact, allowing controlled oxidation and sugar concentration to develop a dense, juicy character. The drying process lasts approximately 18–25 days until optimal moisture is reached. Once dried, the coffee rests for a minimum of 20–30 days in sealed GrainPro bags prior to milling. This meticulous process ensures the creation of a vibrant, fruit-forward flavor experience with remarkable depth and sweetness.
