This lot is our first ever engineered coffee process, for which we buy and elevate the quality of cherries from various producers in La Plata, whose farms range from 1,700 – 2,000 m.a.s.l. Solsticio undergoes three fermentation stages. We start with a communal lot of various varieties, Castillo being the main one. After an aerobic fermentation of at least 12 hours at the farm the cherries are de-pulped and brought to Los Patios. In the second stage of fermentation, the fruity and tropical notes are developed thanks to our own “Fruit Juice” recipe. This solution undergoes an external controlled fermentation, before being added to the coffee, so that all available precursors are ready for the next step.
