Hawaii Puna - Arakawa Estate Cold Fermentation Natural

Summary

A specialty coffee from Arakawa Estate, a small farm in Kurtistown, Puna, Hawaii (USA), owned by Edna Arakawa and Jim Chestnut. The coffee is grown at 700ft elevation and consists of Red Caturra and Typica varieties. It undergoes a Cold Fermentation Natural process where cherries are inoculated with lactic acid-producing organisms in a low oxygen environment for several days, then dried on screens in a dehumidified room. The cup profile features rose, cinnamon, and fig in the aroma, with honeyed sweetness, bright acidity, and a lingering aftertaste of berries and flowers.
