Grape co-ferment

Processing:

  1. Harvesting: This is carried out ensuring a minimum of 90% cherry.

  3. Oxidation: This is done in food-grade plastic drums for 12 hours.

  4. Pulping: The cherries are pulped dry.

  5. Fermentation after pulping: For 24 hours in open tank in order to remove the mucilage.

Fika recommends

Best brewed as a filter coffee but also makes a delicious long black. We've been using the Orea V4 brewer with a water temperature of 92°C.
