スペシャルティコーヒーの世界は、精製方法の多様化が止まらない。さまざまな名前の精製が次々に出てくるが、大まかな方向性としては2パターンだ。
「素材の生豆に足りないものを補う目的」
「新しい価値を生み出す目的」
どちらが良い悪いではなくて、どちらも重要だ。多様な精製があるからこそスペシャルティーコーヒーが成り立っているとも言える。
このラ ザルザは、完全に「新しい価値を生み出す」精製を施している。コーヒーを口に含んだ瞬間、今まで飲んだことの無いコーヒー体験に出会えるはず。そして、こんなに驚きのある味わいなのに、この豆はインフューズドコーヒー*では無いのがさらにすごい。
正真正銘 コーヒー豆の生産処理の工夫のみで生み出されたコーヒーなのである。
エアロビック（好気性発酵）、アナエロビック（嫌気性発酵）、サーマルショック、スローロングファーメンテーションetc。とにかく手間のかかる行程を惜しげもなく注ぎ込んだこの豆は、なんと摩訶不思議な味わいでニヤケが止まらない。パカマラ種のポテンシャルを余すことなく放出し、そしてその上に更なる価値を積み上げているイメージ。リロコーヒー最高ランクに相応しい特上コーヒーです。ぜひご堪能くださいませ。
*他のフルーツやスパイス、お酒などと一緒に発酵させることで、コーヒーの風味をコントロールする精製方法。インパクトあるフレーバーを生むために用いられることが多い。
The world of specialty coffee is constantly evolving, with a never-ending diversification of processing methods. Various names and techniques keep emerging, but they generally fall into two broad categories:
- Enhancing what's lacking in the raw beans
- Creating new value
It's not about which approach is better; both are essential. The existence of diverse processing methods is what makes specialty coffee so fascinating.
La Zarza is a prime example of "creating new value" through its processing. The moment you take a sip, you'll encounter a coffee experience unlike anything you've had before. What's even more impressive is that despite its astonishing flavor, this bean is not an infused coffee*. This coffee is genuinely crafted through innovative processing techniques applied to the coffee beans themselves.
Aerobic fermentation, anaerobic fermentation, thermal shock, slow long fermentation, and more—every painstaking step has been meticulously executed to create a coffee so intriguingly complex, you'll find yourself smiling uncontrollably. The full potential of the Pacamara variety is unleashed, and on top of that, new value is layered. This is a top-tier coffee, worthy of being among the finest offerings at LiLo Coffee. Please indulge yourself in this exceptional experience.
*Infused coffee refers to a processing method where the coffee is fermented with other fruits, spices, or alcohol to influence its flavor, often used to create impactful flavors.
