Situated in Pitalito, Huila, Jonathan has chosen to focus on cultivating quality varieties and intentional fermentation. This has resulted in his coffees being featured consistently on the World competition stage. THE PROCESS This lot goes through one of Lohas’ signature processing - Tropical Fruit Forward Lush, a 3-step fermentation. Firstly, whole cherries are placed in sealed plastic bags for 48H for oxidation, then processed for another 150H of anaerobic fermentation. Lastly, through a thermal shock of 50ºC to trap volatile compounds released during fermentation. Cherries are dried on raised beds for 14 days. WHY WE CHOSE THIS COFFEE We are so incredibly excited to showcase this lot from Lohas! Having won top 3 back to back in the World Barista Competition, Lohas’ advanced processing highlights multi-dimensional flavours of the Pacamara. In this expressive cup, we are tasting juicy cherries jubilee, sweet grenadine syrup and cola!
