The Extraordinary Processes: Thermal Shock – Elevating Coffee to a Competitive Level
The secret behind the captivating flavors of these coffees, which garner attention on the global competition stage, lies in Johan Vergara's Thermal Shock processing. This technique is designed to meticulously control fermentation and drying, enhancing complexity while preserving the pure, varietal characteristics. It's a testament to precision, creating profiles that are truly unique yet undeniably Colombian – a perfect example of what top baristas and brewers seek out for competition.

Origin: Pitalito, Huila, Colombia
Farm Owner: Johan Vergara
Altitude: 2100 MASL
Variety: Bourbon Sidra
Processing: Thermal Shock Yeast Anaerobic Natural
Tasting Notes: Rose, Grape, Strawberry Yogurt, Passion Fruit, Skittles, Plum Wine

This natural process emphasizes intense fruit-forward flavors and a vibrant cup profile that truly stands out, making it a favorite among those pushing the boundaries of coffee expression. Cherries are hand-selected at peak ripeness, boasting Brix levels between 24 and 26. They then undergo 48 hours of oxidation in plastic tanks, with fermentation leachates recirculated to ensure a controlled environment and consistent monitoring of Brix and pH levels. The process concludes with traditional natural sun drying, allowing the inherent sweetness and vibrancy to concentrate, resulting in a rich and complex cup.

Origin: Pitalito, Huila, Colombia
Farm Owner: Johan Vergara
Altitude: 2100 MASL
Variety: Bourbon Sidra
Processing: Thermal Shock Yeast Anaerobic Washed
Tasting Notes: Osmanthus Syrup, Lychee, Sake, Yellow Lemon, Eucalyptus, Green Grape

This coffee showcases a meticulous process designed for a clean and vibrant profile, offering the kind of clarity and nuanced flavors sought after by championship competitors. Cherries are harvested at optimal ripeness and undergo 48 hours of anaerobic fermentation with constant rotation for uniformity. After pulping, they are sealed for a second 80-hour anaerobic stage. The crucial "thermal shock" comes when the coffee is washed with 40°C water to thoroughly remove mucilage, leading to its silky texture. Drying involves rapid dehydration to lock in precursors, followed by slow, solar patio drying to preserve the developed complexity.

Producer: Kanguya Factory, Muranga
Altitude: 1700 masl
Processing: Yellow Honey
Roast Level: Medium-light
Tasting notes: Apple, Honey, Citrus, Black Currant, Gummy

It is roasted to a medium-light level, ensuring the unique profile of each process shines through.

The honey-processed coffees originate from the Kanguya Factory in Murang'a County. This region, known for its red volcanic soil and high-altitude climate, provides the perfect conditions for growing high-quality beans. Kanguya Factory supports hundreds of smallholder farmers with technical training and resources, fostering a commitment to quality and community.

Honey processing is a method that sits between washed and natural processing. The fresh cherries are pulped, but some of the sugary mucilage—or "honey"—is left on the beans before they are slow-dried on raised beds. This process enhances the coffee's sweetness and body. The amount of mucilage left on the bean and the drying method dictate the final outcome, resulting in a spectrum of flavors from light (yellow honey) to dark (black honey).

Costa Rica El Jaguar Honey SHB: A Sweet Embrace from Tarrazú
Experience the unique sweetness of Costa Rica with El Jaguar Honey SHB, a coffee that embodies the innovative honey process. Originating in Costa Rica and now embraced across Central America, this distinctive method involves removing the coffee cherry's outer skin while carefully preserving the sticky mucilage layer on the beans. This sticky layer, rich in natural sugars, is then left to dry on sun-drenched patios or African-style beds, allowing the inherent sweetness to gradually infuse the coffee.

The Jaguar Honey process offers more than just exceptional flavor; it also boasts environmental advantages, requiring less water and energy during milling and drying compared to traditional methods. Furthermore, a shorter fermentation period contributes to a beautiful acidity that perfectly balances the profiles of natural and washed coffees.

Flavour notes: Milk Chocolate, Nutty, Black Cherry, Citrus ~Sweet & Complex

Process : Washed

Producer: NKG group

Varietal: Typica, Bourbon, Caturra and Catuai

Huehuetenango is one of Guatemala’s three non-volcanic regions, as well as its highest and driest under cultivation, making it one of the best for coffee production.

Currents of hot air sweep up from the Plains of Tehuantepec, in Oaxaca, Mexico, and mix here with the cool air descending from the Cuchumatanes Mountains, creating a microclimate that’s protected from frost and allowing coffee to be cultivated at up to 2,000 meters.

Huehuetenango’s extreme remoteness requires that nearly all producers process their own coffee. Fortunately, the region has abundant rivers and streams, making it relatively easy for producers to set up mills. Still more fortunately, Huehue’s geographic conditions help to create exceptional coffees with a distinct acidity and fruity flavors.

We love Guatemalan coffee for its richness and complexity. It makes a really delicious espresso based drink. Enjoy
