Felipe Trujillo - Kombucha

The goal behind creating this coffee was to produce a complex, high-quality coffee that is also low-cost. To achieve this, Ventola decided to use scoby for kombucha to create a culturing that would help develop rich acidity combined with complex fruity flavors. The coffee undergoes a semi-washed process and is dried in a "marquesina", much like the cochadas process. During harvesting, the cherries are placed as they come into open tanks alongside the kombucha culturing.
