Coffee Description
Presta has two coffees from Octavio Reis (Fazenda Do Salto) this year, this is the version with a shorter fermentation method, half as long as its sister lot. It also utilizes a different drying method and gives a nice representation of how changes at the farm, or in the processing method, reflect in the cup. Honey and apples with classic red fruit (cherry) presented as the dominating notes in this interesting coffee from Brazil.

Presta
Presta was started as a coffee cart in the first floor of a hospital in 2012. Since then, brick and mortars and a roastery have become the places where an elevated cup is served. The farm visits over the years has shaped the way Presta sources coffee, from classic quality lots, to fun, lively experimental processes. Backed by a passionate team, one thing remains constant; an unwavering desire to share incredible coffee within the community of Tucson and beyond.
