This coffee has a unique and special journey. It starts with sterilizing selected coffees withozonated water, and a sterilization with ultraviolet light. After pulping the coffee is added to an anaerobic bioreactor for the start of its fermentation. And this is where things get interesting, Wilton adds a yeast commonly used in beer and wine (Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus) which produces intense aromas, spicy character and citrus attributes. The coffee is anaerobically fermented for 52 hours followed by a thermal shock wash. The coffee is then dried in a controlled mechanical dryer for 46 hours.
