By combining their knowledge and experience to improve production quality, Nestor, Adrian, and Jhoan have created a complete powerhouse farm that has coffees on the world stage annually. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEl Diviso provides roasters like us with such an insane amount of information on each and every lot they produce.  Here's the in depth process of this typica mejorado lot (this is wild:)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 1: \u003c\/strong\u003eSanitization and flotation of coffee cherries in water, allowing the removal of impurities and less dense beans.

Finally, a thermal shock is applied by washing the coffee in hot water at an average temperature of 65 - 70 °C, stopping the fermentation process. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 5: \u003c\/strong\u003eDrying begins in stainless steel dehumidifier equipment, which allows greater control over the moisture loss of the coffee. This equipment enables us to control the variables and replicate drying curves. As it is a dark and hermetically sealed room, it allows for better quality control, reduces the volatilization of terpenes and the coffee’s natural aromas, and prevents any external contamination that could affect the coffee’s quality. Maximum drying temperatures do not exceed 37 °C until the coffee reaches a final moisture content of 10–11%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStep 6: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe coffee is stored in bags with GRAINPRO liners to preserve quality and protect it from moisture and external contamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eAnd there you have it.  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cup you can expect a seriously juicy and mouthwatering profile.  This coffee has sweetness and complexity for days.  It's everything we love about the typica mejorado but turned to 11. A super silky and syrupy body that carries a strawberry jammy like sweetness is accompanied by candied peach and creamsicle notes.  A bright and effervescent citric acidity lifts off the cup from hot to cold with florals and more stonefruits.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnd absolute banger of bangers.
