WHY?
Angelo Zapata meticulously harvests the beans, ensuring they meet strict ripeness criteria. Each cherry undergoes a thorough flotation and hand-sorting process to remove any defects. The cherries are then submerged in water for an impressive 30 hours of fermentation before being pulped. Following that, the parchment is carefully washed and dried in controlled conditions until reaching the ideal moisture content.
By utilising the washed process, this coffee truly highlights its unique terroir. You can taste the specific characteristics of the region where it was grown, the soil it thrived in, and the altitude it reached. Unlike other processes like natural, honey, or experimental methods, the washed process allows the coffee to showcase its true self without any added flavours. It's a pure and honest representation of Angelo Zapata's remarkable work as a coffee farmer.
So, if you're looking for a truly exceptional coffee experience, Lost Sheep Coffee's Angelo Zapata Jammy Fruity Citrus is the perfect choice. Indulge in the flavours of this special single origin, and let its smoothness and versatility captivate your senses with every sip.
We roast all of our coffee beans in small batches - we want to make sure you get the best beans for your brew. This means we're roasting Monday to Friday so your caffeine delivery will contain coffee that is freshly roasted and ready to enjoy!
