Colombia Gesha Hermel Alvarez - washed
washed, 1900m
Variety: Gesha
Hermel Alvarez is (still!) an insider tip from Anserma in the district of Caldas. He grows different varieties on the 15 hectares of his farm, 15% of which are Gesha. After we already had a Natural from Hermel Alvarez in our program last year, this time we are looking forward to a washed Gesha.
The cherries are cleaned and sorted, then immediately de-pulped (skin removed) and fermented anaerobically for 30 hours. They are then washed and transferred to a mechanical drying system (parabolic drying system). There they are dried until they have reached an optimum residual moisture content of 10-11%.
