Crucero produced by Ana Mustafá is one of our annual favourites. Pretty much every year we’ve had this Fed-Batch processed Washed lot and it’s always an interesting addition to our selection. Showcasing the effects of careful post harvest practices and fermentation techniques that elevate the flavour profile of a more common Castillo variety.
Ana Mustafá is a coffee producer based in Pereira, Colombia. Mustafá family owns and operates five coffee farms all together. Crucero is a lot they produce from their three coffee farms.
This lot is processed as what Ana refers to as Fed-Batch processing. The coffee cherries for this lot are picked every day for four days and left to ferment in a fermentation tank in layers. The first days picking is in the bottom and every day for four days they add another layer of fresh coffee cherries on top. The fermentation is controlled and after the process the coffee is washed. This process yields an interesting and crazy fruity and clean cup. With barely any fermentation notes or funk.
This coffee is from our partner LaREB (La Real Expedición Botánica) who we work with in Colombia.
