About Buenos Aires Caturra
Prodigal is excited to introduce this lovely washed Caturra to the menu. Clean, well-fruited, and excellent value, it features juicy pomegranate, bright citrus, and delicate floral notes.
Producer: Farmer Luis Ángel Mendez and family have operated the Buenos Aires farm for over 25 years, refining harvest and post-harvest techniques in partnership with InConexus.
Ripe cherries were density sorted to remove defects, then depulped and fermented in open tanks for 48 hours. After washing, the coffee dried on shaded beds for 18–24 days, turned six times daily to preserve its flavor.
What is the roast recency?
Prodigal’s published guidance recommends 3–4 weeks of rest after roasting. See Rest guidance for the selected batch’s current status.
What does 'Filter' or 'Espresso' Roast mean?
Typically filter is roasted lighter than espresso, though this is not always the case. Several factors play into what brands a Prodigal coffee as 'filter' or 'espresso', which includes the roast profile - i.e. how the beans are roasted, not just how developed a roast it is. It doesn't preclude you from using the beans for espresso though!
