Cid Antioxidant CASCARA 3oz

$14.99Precio

Cascara, which means “husk,” “peel” or “skin” in Spanish, is the dried skins of coffee cherries. These pulped skins and seeds are collected after we sun dry our rip coffee cherries for 15-20 days. These dried bags of coffee cherries are not unlike bags of tea—the main visual difference is the pieces of cherries are slightly bigger than a tea leaf and have a leathery, woody look similar to dried raisins or the shell of a nut. Plase be adviced you may find a little coffee seed.

This may be new to youu but Coffee farmers in Yemen and Ethiopia have in fact been drying and brewing cherry like this for centuries—possibly since before coffee seeds were first to make coffee.

    Cascara is just the Spanish word for Peel! As you may know we sun-dry our coffee cherries in a process called “Natural”. Our specialty coffee is only harvested ripe from our coffee plants and then we sun dry our cherries for 15-20 days.
