Chinese Yunnan Guiben Natural
250g/ 8.8oz
This is a very special farm because it is a project started in the village of Tiancai, one of the leaders at Yunnan Coffee Traders (Pacifica Renew’s partners in Yunnan). Tiancai started as a roaster before moving into farm management. Located in the Xishuangbanna area at 1620 masl and producing only 8 tons per year the Guiben coffees are harvested between November and February. As Tiancai's knowledge of specialty coffee has increased, so has his desire to do something unique with coffee on his family's land in Yiwu Xishuangbanna. He works with the farm manager Mr Chen to produce washed, honey and naturals. The naturals are dried on raised African style drying beds for 4-5 weeks. Next, the coffee is grouped into thicker layers and left to dry for another 25 days. Cherries are then run through density channels before being spread out on drying patios for approximately 5-8 days. Like all of our Chinese coffees, Guiben produces a very consistent cup that can be relied on for high quality each harvest. Elevation is 1620+ masl with notes of cherry, grapefruit, pineapple and caramel. Local tribes are the pickers for the Xishuangbanna region. The work is done by the Akha, Dai and Lahu tribes.
Flavor Notes: Cinnamon, Palm Sugar, Dark Plum, 2% Milk
