A great example of co-fermentation done well. At Loc Rung in Lam Dong Provence, coffee cherries are washed and sorted before undergoing 48 hours of fermentation in steel tanks with lavender and yeast. After fermentation, cherries berries are dried in full sun on raised beds to for 7 to 15 days. The resulting coffee is a beautiful cup with notes of snickerdoodle cookies dusted with lavender — it’s perfectly floral with candied sweetness.
