Using the 74158 and 74112 Heirloom varieties, this lot forms part of the Honeymoon Washed project - a modern approach to classic washed processing.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs experimental processing continues to dominate the speciality landscape, traditional washed Ethiopians risk being overshadowed by more intense, fermentation-forward styles. Thus, the Honeymoon Washed project was born to give new life to Washed Ethiopian coffees. Inspired by Kenya’s 72-hour washed protocol and elements of honey processing, a new process combining dry fermentation with washed processing was created. This process, known as Dry Fermented Washed, is now one of Ethiopia's most talked about processing methods and results in a cup that retains the tea-like structure and bright acidity of a traditional washed Yirgacheffe, while introducing increased sweetness and a fruity body. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTwo years of experimentation have gone into this process, where cherries are harvested at 21° Brix, floated, pulped, and placed into dry fermentation tanks for a controlled 72-hour fermentation. A gentle mid-fermentation rinse ensures clarity and avoids unwanted ferment notes, before slow, even drying on raised African beds. A modern refinement of traditional processing, this shows that washed coffees can evolve and continue to compete in the ever-advancing landscape of complex fermentation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTraceability:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGotiti \u0026lt; Gedeo \u0026lt; Yirgacheffe \u0026lt; Ethiopia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Dry Ferment Washed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeirloom 74158, 74112\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes: \u003c\/strong\u003eBlackcurrant, Elderflower, Yuzu\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrew Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e18g Coffee - 300g Water\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e70g Bloom for 30s\u003cbr\u003e50g Spiral Pour, 15s Pause\u003cbr\u003e180g Circular Pour, Drain\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTotal Brew Time - 3:00s\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Saints of Mokha","offers":[{"title":"250g \/ Wholebean","offer_id":56896101253497,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Espresso","offer_id":56896101286265,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Moka Pot","offer_id":56896101319033,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ French Press","offer_id":56896101351801,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Pourover","offer_id":56896101384569,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Wholebean","offer_id":56896101417337,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Espresso","offer_id":56896101450105,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Moka Pot","offer_id":56896101482873,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ French Press","offer_id":56896101515641,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Pourover","offer_id":56896101548409,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0528\/6094\/4562\/files\/banko_gotiti.png?v=1774374226","url":"https:\/\/saintsofmokha.com\/products\/banko-gotiti-ethiopia-washed-heirloom","provider":"Saints of Mokha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
