Happy Holidays Neighbours !
Nestled in the enchanting community of El Pinabete, in the Los Arados region of Mozonte at 1570 - 1690 masl, lies Finca Libre.
The process starts with whole coffee cherries sealed in temperature-controlled barrels to keep unwanted bacteria at bay. As fermentation begins, the cherries release CO₂, creating an oxygen-free environment that drives “inside-out” fermentation within the bean.
Over several days, the cherries break down into a thick, jammy texture before being moved to suspended beds in the cold room to halt any uncontrolled fermentation. Once the cherries reach the right humidity, they’re transferred outdoors to raised African beds to finish drying in the sun.
Inspired by the world of wine, carbonic maceration enhances the coffee's fruity notes while adding body, complexity, and richness to the cup.
Available for the holiday season only !
