Cheptolo Natural
Produced from a younger Ruiru 11 block on our farm, this lot was designed with fermentation
support in mind. Cherries were sorted, floated, and fermented for 120 hours in sealed barrels
with 11g of yeast per 150kg of cherry. The use of a higher yeast concentration was not to impose
flavour, but to aid a more complete and consistent fermentation on newer trees still finding their
full potential.
Cherries were turned twice daily and dried on raised beds for up to three weeks. The cup is
composed and balanced, with stone fruit sweetness, and clean finish — a thoughtful build on
what the young coffee already offers.
