[ 3 ] Story
Jamison Savage is the owner of Finca Deborah and Morgan Estate.
He is regarded as one of the best coffee producers in Panama, and the world.
His coffees are frequently represented in the world stage at various coffee competitions and many awarded as winners.
This lot 'Panama Jamison Savage Geisha CM Jasper Prism' is his finest work yet came out of his new venture 'Salvage Coffee'
Jamison initiated this project in 2019 to push the boundaries of processing for competitions and unique flavor experience. He sources single variety, high altitude grown, quality coffee cherries from neighbouring producers, in Volcan and Boquete.
He then utilizes unique processing methods such as: extended cool fermentation, chill process, carbonic maceration, extended fermentation, traditional natural and washed.
This project allows him to experiment and work with other dedicated producers to create something truly unique and special.
This particular lot is called 'Prism'
100% Geisha variety and Carbonic Maceration Jasper profile was used to accentuate the red fruits, deep cherry flavors.
Here are the processing details:
- Picking of only dark red cherries, separated by sections of the farm. (20-22 Brix)
- Cherries are placed inside sealed tanks and filled with CO2 pushing oxygen out.
- Controlled yeast activity, temperature & humidity of tanks.
- Extended coffee-skin contact and anaerobic fermentation time intensifies fruit characters bringing deep fruit flavors and rich mouthfeel and length to the cup.
- Removed from tank and rinsed, then laid on raised beds. (20-25days)
