SCA Score: 87.0

Sensory Experience

Raisin & Prune Bakers Chocolate Cinnamon Caramel

"Vibrant and bright. A complex Natural characterized by intense dried fruit notes like raisin and prune, balanced by a creamy body of bakers chocolate and warm cinnamon."

🔥 Roaster's Insight

Anaerobic Natural: The high sugar content from the 90h Anaerobic fermentation makes this bean sensitive to heat. Charge gently to avoid scorching the sugars early on.
Development: Keep the ROR steady through Maillard to fully develop the heavy Chocolate body without sacrificing the Raisin acidity.
Result: This coffee shines as a funky filter option or a punchy espresso — but monitor First Crack carefully, as anaerobic naturals tend to crack softer and later than washed coffees.

About this Coffee

Sourced from El Caney Estate, Sarah's Choice is a pristine example of controlled anaerobic fermentation. Producer Natalia Zuluaga employed a 90-hour Anaerobic process to intensify the fruit characteristics inherent to the Caturra variety.

The result is a coffee that drinks like a dessert: driven by the dried fruits (Prune, Raisin) but structurally sound with a classic chocolate backbone. It represents the innovative spirit of the new generation at El Caney.
