They pioneered anaerobic processing methods in Colombia years ago and still produce arguably the best anaerobic washed coffees we've ever tasted! Their commitment to excellence and obsession with perfecting fermentation methods are two of the reasons they feature so prominently on our menu. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe have had the privilege of visiting their farm in the foothills of \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCundinamarca\u003c\/span\u003e many times over the years, including a special trip with all of our roasters last fall. It was on that trip where we tasted this lactic fermentation lot, and you've actually seen it on our menu before! Originally, we blended it with a second Gesha lot from La Palma and offered it as \"The Gesha Blend.\" This time around, we decided this coffee deserves to stand on its own - and we think you'll agree at first sip.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRUST THE PROCESS |\u003c\/strong\u003e After being picked at peak ripeness, the coffee cherries are transported to the mill and hand-sorted for quality. Next, they are placed in sealed tanks to undergo lactic fermentation, wherein bacteria are starved of oxygen and feast on the lactic acid-rich carbohydrates found in the coffee's mucilage, resulting in the unique and remarkable flavor profile described below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAKE A SIP | \u003c\/strong\u003eWhen \u003cem\u003ehot, \u003c\/em\u003ethis coffee is heavily floral - think bergamot and rose. The acidity is like sweet citrus, reminding us of lemon curd. There's this really lovely vanilla thing happening, which complements the peach stone fruit note to give us something like peaches and cream.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the coffee approaches a pleasantly\u003cem\u003e warm\u003c\/em\u003e temperature, both the vanilla-like sweetness and the citric acidity increase, and that bergamot florality prevails. That stone fruit note has transformed into something more like cherries, and fleshy orchard fruits (like pear and macintosh apples) can be perceived here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen \u003cem\u003ecool, \u003c\/em\u003ethis coffee has us seeing RED - red plum and back cherry have entered the chat. Even at this temperature, it's still floral and aromatic, reminding us now of something more herbal, like spruce and earl grey tea. Here, we're left with a sipping experience akin to apple cider - it's crisp and fruity, refreshing and sweet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e___________________________________________________________________________\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin |\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eCundinamarca, Colombia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFarm |\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLa Palma Y El\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTucán\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess |\u003c\/strong\u003e Lactic\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety |\u003c\/strong\u003e Gesha\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElevation |\u003c\/strong\u003e 1730 - 1770 masl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"100g","offer_id":49721113379129,"sku":"BWSO-LaP-3210","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"12oz","offer_id":49721113411897,"sku":"BWSO-LaP-3212","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2988\/2574\/files\/Lapalmayeltucan_onlinecard_3x_a8d1ab72-a6b2-40dc-a0a2-1c37c05ead8f.png?v=1723081818","url":"https:\/\/www.blackwhiteroasters.mom\/products\/r-la-palma-lactic-gesha-lot-35","provider":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
