Cascara Dried Coffee Cherry - Costa Rica
Cascara is the dried skin of the coffee cherry. This cascara lot comes from Helsar de Zarcero Micromill in Costa Rica's West Valley. We find this particular cascara to be reminiscent of apple cider, and the cup gets sweeter as it cools down. Helsar switches the conventional order of coffee processing. Instead of treating the skin as waste, the team picks Caturra, Catuai, and Villalobos cherries specifically for cascara, making the seeds the byproduct. On harvest day, the cherries travel to a dedicated facility where the team removes the seeds, then washes, pasteurizes, and dehydrates the pulp
