The Process
This lot is an Anaerobic Natural:
- π Ripe cherry selection β Whole cherries picked at full ripeness
- π§ͺ Anaerobic fermentation β Cherries ferment in sealed, oxygen-limited tanks
- π³ Shade drying β Dried slowly in the shade with the fruit intact
The slow, shaded drying keeps the fermentation in check, giving a rich, rounded cup rather than a sharp one.
The Cup
Grape soda and dark myrtle-berry liqueur lead with juicy, fizzy fruit. A creamy cashew-butter texture rounds everything out into a long, smooth finish. Funky but balanced β a great pick for fans of expressive Ethiopian naturals.
