CASCARA GUATEMALA INFUSION (WASHED)

Cascara Guatemala Washed is a sweet, fruity and juicy infusion made from the dried pulp of coffee cherries. Suitable for any season, it can be enjoyed both hot and cold, over ice.

Cascara contains 50% less caffeine than Arabica coffee.

ORIGIN & PROCESSING

Cascara Guatemala comes from the Santa Isabel coffee farm, located at an altitude of 1.200 to 1.400 meters. All coffees produced at Finca Santa Isabel are grown under the dense shade of a well-protected ecosystem. Guided by his commitment to environmental conservation, farmer Alex Keller has begun implementing biodynamic farming practices to enhance the health and quality of his coffee crops.

The result is a cascara of excellent quality, organically certified. Cascara is obtained during the coffee bean depulping process from the coffee cherry, then dried on african beds. The coffee from which this cascara originates has been washed processed.

In the cup, cascara develops a juicy, delicate texture and a sweet, fruity taste.

SERVING RECOMMENDATIONS

After brewing, separate the cascara from the water immediately to prevent over-extraction and dryness.

Serve the infusion fresh – as it cools, the intensity of the aromas will fade.

Taste the infusion before adding any sweeteners – cascara naturally develops acidity and sweetness.

For a refreshing twist, serve Cascara Guatemala cold, over ice, to enhance its crisp and cooling sensation while reducing acidity.
