When you see ‘anaerobic natural process’ you may assume a coffee is going be a funk bomb, but please DO NOT BE SO HASTY

This lot comes from producer Oscar Antonio Ureña and his farm, Finca Higueronal.

Here it is fermented anaerobically in tanks for 96 hours before being transferred to raised beds for drying.

F1 isn’t a varietal as such, rather denoting that this coffee is the first generation of offspring from selective breeding of 2 parent coffee plants. Oscar’s breeding experiments focus on improving cup quality as well as offering strong resistance to pests and disease. In a nutshell, this means that a coffee denoted F1 will be totally unique to anything you’ve tasted before!
