A coffee worthy of our Top hat edition status. Anarobic fermentation brings out super sweet notes and the prune notes bring a very unique flavour profile. We love this in Aeropress, but it also makes a great base for Americano and flat white.

About This Coffee
Finca Argentina is a 80ha farm owned by the Peralta family in Dipilto, Nueva Segovia. This single-plot microlot is honey processed, whereby the cherry is de-pulped and then sun dried with mucilage retained.
The Peralta Family coffee-growing history dates back to the beginning of the 20th century, but it was only in 2008 that brothers Julio and Octavio shifted focus to developing unique specialty preparations. We are privileged to have known the Peraltas for several years and have always admired the attitude and values that they have brought to their operation. We are delighted to bring their microlots and special preparations to Europe. From single plot, single varietal separations to carefully controlled extended fermentations, the Peralta family continue to position themselves at the forefront of specialty coffee innovation.
