Panama Finca Deborah Geisha Afterglow Cascara - 200gr

Cascara means "skin" or "peel" in Spanish. Brewing of cascara, so brewing of the peel that remains after the beans have been removed from the fruit of a coffee plant, has recently become very popular. The brew tastes like tea, it is dry and fruity with a relatively low caffeine content, compared to coffee. You can expect the notes of apricot, boiled apples and plum. Finca Deborah Afterglow is a traditional naturally processed Geisha. Afterglow starts with a meticulous harvesting practice where only the ripest, intact cherries are harvested with a BRIX reading over 21. These cherries are quickly brought to the dry- house for post selection on the top level of Deborah’s 3-tiered African beds system designed by Jamison Savage. While on the top level a certain depth of the cherries is required to prevent over-fermentation and off flavors. Frequent agitation of the cherries is required during the first several days in order to minimize any possible opportunity for a fungal bloom and constant monitoring of temperatures, airflow, as well as humidity inside the dry-houses are critical.
