Magnum Sidra is an vibrant and expressive, fruit-driven coffee with remarkable clarity. A light roast brings out the aromatic best of the Mosto Anaerobic process. Ripe banana, strawberry, and grape lead the flavour profile, followed by heady floral undertones from the Sidra. These combine with more exotic tropical fruit and red apple notes as the coffee cools. A juicy blood orange acidity enhances its complexity over a sweet and silky smooth finish.

El Vergel is a standout coffee farm in Colombia, gaining fame for producing flavourful, dynamic coffees that showcase Colombia's modern processing and quality standards at their best. Brothers Elias and Shady Bayter lead the farm, and never stop looking for new methods and fermentation styles to apply on their farm

At the last count there were at least 11 different cultivars on the farm ranging from classic Colombian selections like Caturra, to more exotic selections like this Sidra. Sidra originates from a research site in Pichincha region of Ecuador, and is a hybrid of Ethiopian Landrace Arabica and Bourbon. Still rare, almost unheard of outside of Ecuador and Colombia, it is fast gaining popularity for its unique profile.

This Sidra from Elias and Shady has a huge emount of character from the process as well. Mosto anaerobic fermentation is a method where coffee cherries ferment for 3 days in a sealed, oxygen-free environment with added mosto (a juice from previous fermentations – in this case a Java cultivar selection). This enhances complexity, intensifies fruity and floral notes, and creates a distinct, layered flavour profile.
