EPOCH 3: Mil Cumbres Natural Pacamara (OMNI) All Coffee, EPOCH 3 - Funky & Wild

Tasting Experience: Ripe raspberry, grape, wine gums, and white chocolate.

Coffee description: This extremely vibrant and juicy pacamara is exactly what you want at 3pm. Incredibly sweet, reminding us of cola, this coffee (as Conor says) tastes like “more”.

Producer Info: Mil Cumbres is a small, high-elevation farm location in Panama. The Chiriqui province, known for its pristine microclimate and dedication to producing exceptional coffees. With elevations that peak over 1800MASL the production benefits from cool temperatures and rich volcanic soil; making it ideal for slow cherry maturation and complex flavour development. Coffee production on the farm follows biological methods, and even though there is no organic certification the use of chemicals is limited to some herbicides (“green line”) applied only punctually where necessary while the majority of methods applied are biologically friendly (manual labor, biological fertilizer and disease averters, etc.)

Process: They first float the coffee and select or discard by hand all the ones with defects, then pre-dry them 24 hours and later to the African beds covered with ultraviolet film.

The water they use comes from an artisan spring located at 2,000 masl within the Volcán Barú National Park boundaries. It's pure, completely natural, clean and crisp water.

The beans are slowly dried for the next 30-40 days in the African beds (thickness of inch and a half at the most per square), the average temperature is 26C the highest and the lowest at night is 15, averages 17 degrees. Humidity is controlled via solar panels, since we don’t have electrical power, we can assure we are completely green!

They do not pour, use, intervene or by any means use accelerators or aggressive fermentation processes, or fruits, malt or yeast, literally nothing.
