YULISSA CHAMBI
RASPBERRY, PLUM, GRILLED PEACH
YULISSA CHAMBI is a rich and complex coffee from a young female coffee grower. Packed with juicy fresh fruit notes like cherry and raspberry, this coffee presents a ton of fruitiness but maintains a pristine clarity of flavor.
PRODUCER
This coffee is produced by Yulissa Chambi. Yulissa is just 21 years old and comes from a family that has growing coffee for a number of generations. Her brother Felix Chambi Garcia oversees quality control and exports at Cooperativa Agrícola Cafetalera San Juan and introduced Yulissa to the specialty market and has mentored her as she got her farm of the ground.
VARIETIES
This offering is variety blend of Red Catuai and Typica. Red Catuai is a cultivar derived from the Bourbon variety. Typica is one of the two major varieties of the coffea arabica species.
PROCESSING PROTOCOL
Once the coffee is harvested it is rinsed and placed in sealed barrels with one-way air valves. The coffee cherries are sealed in these barrels for 72 hours. The coffee is then removed from the barrels and processed according to a standard washed/wet process: depulped, fermented overnight in an open tank, rinsed, and laid out to dry on raised beds.
