Because the farms are tiny, averaging only 250 coffee plants, farmers are reluctant to accept the cost of replacing their old lineage Red Bourbon trees. So the Red Bourbon in this coffee is around 50 years old the equivalent of an old vine wine. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCool nights, high altitude, and slow cherry maturation combine with top quality genetics to allow sugars and acids to develop the exceptional qualities red bourbon is famous for. Upon delivery to the Masha Mill, the cherry is floated for density, hand-sorted, and pulped within hours of arrival. Fermentation proceeds for 10 to 12 hours, with trained agronomists monitoring by hand to identify the precise moment to end the process. It’s a judgment made by feel and experience, not a timer. The parchment is then submerged for an additional 12 to 18 hours before being laid onto raised drying beds for two to three weeks. The result is a coffee that is consistently juicy, clean, and full-bodied.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrew Notes:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis fully washed coffee rewards a clean, attentive brew.
