Lush [2022]

What do you do when your 6 children finally leave the nest and fend for themselves? Surely relax, kick back and enjoy the peace and quiet, no one eating all your food or laying on your couch all day. Not Diego Estela, he figured with all his free time he would purchase some land and become a coffee farmer. Turns out that was a great call and we have this lush delightful coffee because of it. Diego has been chasing quality and continues to make improvements to his processes, infrastructure and planting new varietals. This specific lot is a AAA washed bourbon which is hand picked, floated, pulped and then fermented in open air containers for 40 to 48 hours before drying in the solar open greenhouse. Big notes of golden delicious and raspberry, with a boozy pomegranate undertone.. The name Lush comes from our guy Mark at Caravela saying lush whenever we talk about super exciting coffees. Thanks to Mark and the team at Caravela for importing this truly outstanding coffee.
