Jhonatan and Johan Gasca are third generation coffee producers who blend their family traditions with modern coffee producing techniques. The Zarza farm also has a specific dedication to biodiversity and respect for the land. For this coffee, the cherries are first oxidized for 24-48 hours. Then, they are depulped and anaerobically fermented in tanks for 24-36 hours. They then go through a second fermentation in mucilage before undergoing a thermal shock of hot-then-cold water. Finally the coffee is washed again before being dried on raised beds for 15-25 days. WHY WE SELECTED THIS COFFEE We’re back with another incredible release from Zarza Coffee—and this one is something special. This Aji Bourbon has undergone a beautifully executed thermal shock process, and the result is pure elegance in the cup. Expect an explosion of juicy, sparkly tropical guava up front, carried by a velvety body with a subtle lactic character that reminds us of a perfectly balanced mango lassi. Layers of hibiscus and unmistakable sweet, candy-like notes round it all out. This is exactly what we hope for in higher-processed coffees: minimal funk, but all the complexity and character wrapped into a refined, vibrant experience.
