Flavor Profile of a Lugmapata 2
The Lugmapata 2 variety stands out for its bright, juicy acidity, reminiscent of citrus fruits like orange and tangerine. This acidity is well-defined and vibrant, yet not excessive, adding freshness to the flavor profile.
The Washed Process: Purity and Clarity in Every Cup
The washing process completely removes the pulp and mucilage from the beans before drying. After pulping the cherries, the beans ferment in water for a controlled period, which helps eliminate any sticky residue. The beans are then washed and dried in the sun or in mechanical dryers.
The result is a coffee with a clean, bright profile that highlights lively acidity and fresh notes, such as citrus and flowers. This process allows the bean's intrinsic character to shine through, delivering a crisp, refreshing, and well-balanced cup experience.
