INTRO

We have known Wilbert for a number of years as the head of quality control and marketing for the San Fernando Cooperative. This is our first year working with his coffee, and this season's lot is stunning. In the cup we find tropical fruit and lavender with incredible sweetness.

THE PRODUCER

Wilbert Almanza is an exceptional coffee producer who grew up in a coffee-producing family and has worked in coffee his entire life. After discovering the speciality industry, he quickly became deeply interested in quality and learning how to taste coffee. Today, he serves as the head of quality control and marketing for San Fernando and has contributed significantly to many of the remarkable coffees we have sourced from this special region.

THE PROCESS

The Washed process at Bella Rosa involves meticulous handling:

  • 🍒 Hand Picking — Cherries picked at peak ripeness
  • 💧 Floating — Water flotation removes defects
  • 🔧 De-Pulping — Same-day de-pulping on day of harvest
  • ⏱️ Dry Fermentation — 5 days in controlled barrels
  • 🚿 Extensive Washing — Thorough washing after fermentation
  • ☀️ Raised Bed Drying — Slow drying on raised beds

This extended fermentation creates exceptional complexity with remarkable sweetness and clarity.

THE CUP

Stunning expression of SL9 with incredible sweetness. Tropical fruit and lavender with candy-like sweetness. A remarkable coffee showcasing Wilbert's expertise in quality control and processing.

Flavour Notes

  • 🥭 Tropical
  • 💜 Lavender
  • 🍬 Candy

What is the roast recency?

SEY doesn't advertise a roast preference to Filter or Espresso, instead they are roasted for the best amongst both - often called Omniroast. That being said, SEY  typically roast light.

We recommend brewing with beans that are at least two weeks off roast. All beans are roasted to peak flavour at around 8-12 weeks. We have the option to either purchase standard beans (at least 2 weeks but no longer than 6 weeks off roast), or rested beans (at least 7 weeks off roast, no longer than 12). For peak flavour, if you are looking to use immediately, we recommend purchasing the rested beans. If you are adding to your rotation of beans, we recommend purchasing the standard and allowing the beans to naturally rest and mature whilst you rotate through other beans.
