THE DEETS
Lao Xu Zhai Village is in the Yunnan Province in southwestern China. Yunnanβs mountainous landscape, rich volcanic soil, and subtropical climate provide the ideal conditions to grow tasty coffee. This particular lot is a naturally processed Catimor. At Lao Xu Zhai, a new processing station, nursery, and folks sharing information about experiments in plant nutrition and harvesting have rapidly increased quality and consistency.
This is the first coffee PERC has sourced from China. The quality and unique cup profile of this lot blew us away. Itβs an incredibly sweet cup with a unique plum and cherry acidity. Baking spices, chocolate, and a subtle licorice/herbal quality round out the finish. We're stoked to partner with the folks at Torch Coffee and Lao Xu Zhai on this truly unique coffee.
