Secret Stash 033: Felipe Henao
Produced by Felipe Henao. Cherries were picked following a strict ripeness criteria, afterwards floated and exposed to a wet fermentation of 56 hours at 20 degrees Celsius, in this environment bacteria feeds from carbohydrates and sugars from the mucilage. This leads to a higher concentration of lactic acid. Later gently washed and later placed on raised beds for 18 days until ideal moisture content was achieved.
