Nossa Senhora de Fatima

A meticulous 120-hour yeast-inoculated natural process from the Muniz family: orange blossom & blackberry liqueur.

Limited to 75 boxes.

The Nossa Senhora de Fatima, produced by the Muniz family and roasted by Obadiah Coffee, represents a modern approach to Brazilian coffee production. This lot utilizes a yeast-inoculated natural process, a technique that intentionally influences the fermentation environment to develop distinct flavor profiles. While traditional natural-processed coffees often exhibit heavy fruit and sweetness, the addition of specific yeast strains can introduce more complex, nuanced aromatics. In this instance, the roaster identifies notes of orange blossom and blackberry liqueur, highlighting the potential for floral and dark fruit characteristics in this style. To better understand how such processing methods impact the final cup, you can explore our processing methods explainer. For those looking to refine their ability to identify these specific descriptors, we recommend referencing the flavor wheel to categorize the interplay between the delicate floral top notes and the deeper, liqueur-like body found in this unique offering.
