Fazenda Guariroba pink bourbon

A very different Brazilian coffee!
 
Medium acidity, high sweetness, clean cup.
 
Farm: GuarirobaProcess: Double Fermentation*
Variety: pink bourbon
Producers: Gabriel Lamounier Vieira and Elisa Paiva Lamounier
Region: Minas Gerais, Brazil
Elevation: 1200 masl
Notes: florals, sweet ginger, pepper, chocolate and more!
Brewing methods: This coffee is roasted light with filter brews in mind. It can definitely also work well for espresso, but if you’re looking for that more ‘classic’ Brazilian profile, then I would choose the Fazenda Sao Domingos – also available on my site.
 
When you grind this coffee you are immediately greeted by a waft of delicate spices. Up front you have florals and spice. The finish has some more familiar chocolate notes that one might expect from a Brazilian coffee.
 
When profiling the roast, I found that slightly darker roasts elevated the mouthfeel and chocolate while very light roasts boosted clarity and florals. My iteration leans a little to the latter while preserving the sweet chocolate finish.
 
 
*The coffee undergoes an initial hydraulic separation, followed by fermentation in a bioreactor for 36 hours with the addition of carefully selected and isolated microorganisms sourced from the same lot. After pulping, the coffee undergoes a second fermentation for an additional 36 hours. Drying is conducted over approximately 20 days to ensure optimal flavor development.
