This coffee is highly regarded as a single origin espresso. It, along with Elida Honey coffee, are special, separate small micro lots of Elida Estate coffee. Varietal is 100% Catuai. While the majority of coffee produced on Elida Estate is washed, this particular small lot was patio dried in its pulp. To aid in drying, it was taken from the high elevations of the farm and brought to a lower elevation where the temperatures were considerably warmer. There, it dried naturally, over a period of 10 days. The combination of Elida's award winning Catuai, always a top contender in the Best of Panama competition, and the thoughtful, artisanal processing that the Lamastus family is experimenting with, augers for an extremely complex, earthy cup, pushing the edge of fruitiness to the extreme. A tremendous single origin espresso. We also have Elida Honey coffee, essentially the same coffee with a different processing routine which you can read about as part of its own description. Very limited supply. Cupping Characteristics: Deep, earthy and highly complex profile. Sweet, tropical fruit, chocolate, blueberry flavors. Syrupy, fruity, chocolaty. Roasting Notes: FC+ will provide a great springboard for espresso, a recommended brewing format for this coffee. If you intend to brew it other than as an espresso you might want to lighten up a little to FC.
