THE PROCESS

 POL, have processed this lot using anaerobic fermentation, with the addicting of natural yeasts. This process requires careful monitoring to control the levels of fermentation in an oxygen starved environment. This process allows delicate flavors to permeate the coffee beans, before they are laid to rest and sun-dry for several weeks. The results of this meticulously detailed process is evident in every cup, with unmissable floral fruit notes and sweetness ever present. 

 WHY WE LIKE IT

We could mention liking this coffee for its rare origin, as Chinese coffees are hard to come by. Or,  we could mention our admiration for Project One Light's dedication and the success they bring, which adds to our liking. And we can't forget to mention the unique Catimor varietal, which thrives in the Yunnan climate.

But above all, we love this coffee for its delicious flavor. It's especially exceptional when brewed for a filter, showcasing notes of lychee and peach tea, but these notes will not be missed in your espresso brews also.
