Mt. Apo 72HR Anaerobic Natural - Philippines

This year marks the 5th year of collaboration with Tres Rosa’s farm. And this year, we are improving upon our sourcing practices for our Mt. Apo coffees from Tres Rosa’s farm. We have set new protocols in place and are committed to only sourcing coffees that score 83 points and up from Tres Rosa’s whilst purchasing more greens from them at the same time.
A huge section of our customer base loves Tres Rosa’s coffee. We also see that many of our customers purchase our Mt Apo selection as gifts to friends and families overseas to show them what our Philippine coffees taste like. As such, we deem it our responsibility to source only the very best this farm can offer and proudly showcase the quality that we are capable of producing.

Our aspiration for our Mt. Apo Tres Rosa’s selection is to showcase what the Philippine specialty coffee scene can offer in terms of green bean quality, roasting skill, and the overall quality improvements that can be done in the long-term that are only possible with a long-term collaboration with a producer. This is something quite unique in a coffee producing country wherein a deeper collaboration is possible between the producer and the roaster.
This particular lot is a specially prepared micro lot for Wide Awake PH from our partner farm Tres Rosa's based in Bansalan, Davao del Sur.

Enjoy a sparkling and complex cup profile with this 72HR Anaerobic natural coffee. This coffee’s flavor complexity and well-controlled intensity may be attributed to the meticulous attention to detail that went into this coffee’s processing. The people behind Tres Rosa's took ripe coffee cherries and sealed them in grain pro bags for 3 days in a cool environment and then dried the coffee cherries on raised beds. While drying on the raised beds, the cherry piles were periodically turned for a slow and gentle 3-week drying phase. This careful processing ensures that the taste of this lot of coffee is flavor complex and intriguing without becoming overpowering and alcoholic.

We roast this coffee light with the objective of achieving a harmonious tasting balance. As a result, we really enjoy the flavor clarity, sparkle, winey-ness, and fruitiness of this special local coffee.

In the cup, you will taste tropical fruits, cherry, red apple, with a winey finish and a velvety mouthfeel.

We hope you continue to support our local coffee projects! With your support, we can continue elevating our local coffee’s quality and continue serving high quality Philippine coffees to you.
