LOS NOGALES / OSCAR HERNANDEZ

This process begins with selective hand-picking of fully ripe cherries, ensuring only the highest quality coffee is harvested. The cherries are then cleaned and disinfected with treated water to eliminate impurities and conta- minants. A density-based selection follows, using flota- tion to separate low-density or defective cherries from the denser, high-quality ones. The selected cherries are then pasteurized in hot water at 90°C for 60 seconds, the longest of our protocols, to enhance sugar release for fermentation. The next step involves dry pulping using a modified pulper to extract all the mucilage, which is used in the fermentation process. The coffee undergoes a 7-day fermentation in its own sugars, with a 1:4 ratio of pre-fermented yeast to coffee juice, enhancing comple- xity while preserving the coffee's terroir. Finally, the beans are sun-dried for 15 days, reducing their moisture content to ideal levels for long-term storage and preserving their quality.

Customers who purchase whole bean coffee should be aware that the product is non-refundable. It is also important for customers to cancel their purchase before the product is shipped if they wish to do so. Once the coffee has been shipped, cancellation is no longer possible. This policy is designed to ensure that customers receive the freshest coffee possible and that the company can continue to meet the high standards of quality that their customers expect.
