- About this Coffee: Five years ago Eduardo Fernandez made the decision to purchase Finca Zacatin in order to start experimenting with different types of coffee varieties and processing methods. For this lot, the ripest cherries are hand-harvested then placed whole into fermentation tanks for a 48 - 72 hour period. These fermentation tanks create an oxygen-free environment that impacts the flavor characteristics of the coffee. The cherries are then placed in drying racks for about 15 days. Once the drying period is complete, the cherries are hulled to remove the dried fruit from the seed. This coffee is vibrant and complex with a lot of fruit characteristics that reminded us of watermelon, blackberry, and nutmeg.
