Hawaii Puna Champagne Natural - Arakawa Estate

Summary

A single-origin coffee from Arakawa Estate, a small farm in Kurtistown, Hawaii's Puna district, owned by Edna Arakawa and Jim Chestnut. The farm has 170 trees of Red Caturra and Typica varieties on a 1-acre lot. The coffee undergoes a 'Champagne Natural' process developed by Paradise Coffee Roasters, where whole coffee cherries are fermented in water with selected wine yeast strains, producing a sparkling effervescent quality, then finished with sun and mechanical drying. Tasting notes include strawberry, grapes, guava, and milk chocolate with tropical and floral aromas and a sweet, complex profile.
