Mauricio treats the farm as a living laboratory, cultivating rare varieties such as Gesha, Maragogype, Mokka, Laurina, Wush Wush and Typica Mejorado, and running tightly controlled experiments in anaerobic and nitrogen flushed fermentations to push flavour without sacrificing cup clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMauricio runs roughly 100 processing experiments per year at La Negrita, using techniques inspired by beer, wine and sake production (Nuruk, Koji, selected yeasts) to create highly distinctive, repeatable flavour profiles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eMauricio explicitly favours\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003ealcoholic\/ethanolic fermentation over lactic, acetic, propionic and other acid-driven pathways. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eHis aim is to stay in the early alcoholic phase, where yeast activity builds aromatic complexity. This encourages yeast dominated metabolism (especially Saccharomyces and related strains) so that sugars in the cherry are converted primarily into ethanol and esters, rather than large amounts of organic acids; this keeps acidity vibrant but integrated and not dominant.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lot showcases Maragogype variety and a fermentation driven by Nuruk, a traditional Korean grain starter. Whole cherries are sealed in anaerobic tanks with Nuruk and flushed with nitrogen, creating a low oxygen environment where the starter guides a slow, controlled fermentation that builds sweetness and aromatic complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #ab8450;\"\u003ePROCESS: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #030200;\"\u003eW\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #160d01;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #ab8450;\"\u003eREGION:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #030200;\"\u003e P\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #ab8450;\"\u003eELEVATION: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #ab8450;\"\u003eVARIETAL: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #160d01;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #ab8450;\"\u003eCUP:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #030200;\"\u003e L\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 12.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue';\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #030200;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #160d01;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; color: #ab8450;\"\u003eROAST:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e F\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"description\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Code Black Coffee AU","offers":[{"title":"120g \/ Wholebean","offer_id":48787625804030,"sku":"Finca La Negrita 120g (F)","price":85.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0486\/6870\/4920\/files\/Rare_Colombia_Mauricio-Shattah-Maragogype-_Single-Origin_Filter.png?v=1788828809","url":"https:\/\/codeblackcoffee.com.au\/products\/colombia-mauricio-shattah-la-negrita-maragogype-filter-rare-single-origin","provider":"Code Black Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
