About This Coffee
The Region
Coffee was introduced to the Galapagos islands almost 200 years ago and over many generations, the unique terroir of the islands have allowed arabica to develop extraordinary characteristics and flavour profiles only found in the Galapagos. Thus, while coffee is not native to the islands, Galapagos arabica is considered endemic and unique. While altitudes do not reach the heights of origins on the south American continent, the climate is relatively cool, while mineral-rich volcanic soils provide abundant nutrients.
The Process
This lot is fully washed. Ripe cherries are pulped, fermented in water for 16 hours, washed, and then sun dried on raised African beds for 2 weeks. The parchment coffee is then transported to Guayaquil, mainland Ecuador, where it is stored in a temperature and humidity controlled warehouse to maximise quality and freshness.
