Description
Uraga washing station receives cherries from farmers in the surrounding region. The station is located in Guji, a coffee-growing region that was once part of Yirgacheffe but whose microclimate produces such unique coffee, that it was allocated as its own coffee-growing region. Farming methods in the region remain largely traditional. Guji farmers typically intercrop their coffee plants with other food crops.
This lot is processed using carbonic maceration, a processing technique inspired by winemaking. Like anaerobic fermentation, carbonic maceration typically takes place in a sealed environment. Creating a carbon dioxide-rich environment alters the kinds of microbes that will survive and flourish during fermentation. Different microbial activities will alter the flavor profile and can produce extremely unique and delicious flavors.
