Single Origin Yunnan Tenku Farm Natural Double Fermentation
Yunnan Tenku Farm Natural Double Fermentation
In addition to the complex aromas born from fermentation, such as red wine, brandy, and rum, I was able to feel a gentle sweetness like cherries. Some people may feel that it is "over-fermented" when extracted at normal concentration, but by reducing the amount used and diluting the liquid concentration, the fruity and black tea-like aromas can be felt in a well-balanced way.
[From the roaster]
The medium-dark roast gives it a deep flavor reminiscent of brandy or rum. Because it has a strong fermented taste, you can soften the fermented taste by using more hot water or less powder when drip-brewing, which will give it a fruity tea-like flavor.
Enjoy a coffee that is different from your regular coffee!

[Farm Information]
Beautiful fields of Pu'er tea spread across Yunnan, China. The source of the Mekong River flows out, and colorful flowers bloom. Coffee is grown in a remote area deep in the mountains, like a utopia. In recent years, there has been growing concern in China about the decline in coffee market prices and the increasing environmental impact.
So, Baoshan City, Pu'er City, universities and companies in Japan and China have started a project to practice high-quality agriculture with a low environmental impact, focusing on the Nanling region at an altitude of about 2,000m. This coffee is refined using a natural process of "secondary fermentation" that was inspired by the manufacturing method of Pu'er tea and was perfected after more than 70 types of experiments.
It has a berry-like sourness and a rich aroma like brandy. The farm manager, Mr. Tsang, said that the farm was named Tenku Farm because "there is nothing but coffee trees and the vast sky on the farm."
