Introducing : Lost Origin & Finca La Estrella | Pacamara, Natural with Pichia kluyveri yeast and Lactobacillus Plantarum.
We’re thrilled to introduce this rare release, a collaboration that highlights the extraordinary innovation of Lost Origin Coffee Lab and the deep-rooted heritage of Finca La Estrella in Boquete, Panama. This unique Pacamara lot is an exceptional find, meticulously crafted through pioneering processing techniques, steeped in the rich legacy of the Saraceni family, who have managed this historic 7-hectare farm since 1914.
Lost Origin Coffee Lab, based in Panama, has quickly made a name for itself by redefining the boundaries of coffee fermentation. We were so proud to share in their debut release of Lot 001_001 in 2023, since then, Lost Origin’s cutting-edge approach has gone on to feature across the globe, contributed to this year’s World Brewers Cup Championship-winning coffee. Their expertise lies in combining scientific experimentation with a profound respect for the terroir, unlocking flavors typically reserved for the world of winemaking and in their experience, beer brewing.
This limited-edition release is a stellar example of their innovative spirit. The Pacamara cherries from Finca La Estrella underwent a controlled fermentation, utilizing Pichia kluyveri yeast and Lactobacillus Plantarum bacteria. The cherries were placed in open stainless steel containers for three days, where the yeast and bacteria worked in harmony, breaking down sugars and amplifying the tropical fruit notes of the coffee.
The result is a complex, vibrant cup with notes of ripe mango, jasmine, and white peach, layered with a silky mouthfeel and a crisp, clean finish.
This is a limited release, and we anticipate it will sell out quickly!
