And Excelsa has long been a part of their playground. This incredible species can resist pests, withstand drought, and survive low rainfall. It's also naturally lower in caffeine. But what makes it equally exciting for specialty drinkers is its unique flavour. With this special lot, the producers show how it develops over a 132-hour fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRipe Excelsa cherries were picked from trees that grow over 15m tall. After removing low-density cherries, the remaining cherries were prepared for carbonic maceration. Placed in custom-built tanks, they were allowed to ferment in a CO2-rich environment. To guide the process, the producers added select starter cultures. Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the yeast behind bread, beer, and wine, created fruity complexity. Lactobacillus, the bacterium best known for fermenting curd, developed a creamy mouthfeel. After 84 hours, the lids on the tanks were removed. It set an aerobic phase in motion, which extended fermentation for another 48 hours. Finally, the coffee was dried in polyhouses over 12 days until it reached 12% moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRoasted to a light profile, the result is a unique expression of Excelsa.\u003c\/span\u003e It opens with the aroma of wild berries, setting up a sip with a medium to high body. Layers of red plum, ripe banana, nutmeg, and sweet cedar unfold next. And rounding off each sip is an aftertaste of malt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe recommend brewing this coffee black as an espresso, a pour over, or using a French Press.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"OutlineElement Ltr SCXW156057882 BCX0\"\u003e\n\u003cp lang=\"EN-GB\" class=\"Paragraph SCXW68732332 BCX0\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Resting Period: \u003c\/strong\u003e 13 days\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp lang=\"EN-GB\" class=\"Paragraph SCXW68732332 BCX0\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e This coffee pack is a special release with limited availability and, therefore, cannot be included in a subscription plan.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Beans - Limited","offers":[{"title":"100g","offer_id":42432934805559,"sku":null,"price":600.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0738\/1409\/files\/Frame_4_3_new_edited_458e023e-0c35-44ba-9410-82d73de4316b.png?v=1788875481","url":"https:\/\/bluetokaicoffee.com\/products\/excelsa-by-mooleh-manay-estate","provider":"Blue Tokai Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
