About This Coffee

This coffee is a single origin from Huila, Colombia, grown at 1,600-1,900 meters altitude. It is a Honey Carbonic Maceration process with co-fermentation, using Castillo and Caturra varietals. The beans are processed at Los Patios facility, where the depulped coffee is co-fermented with commercial peach concentrate and a proprietary solution for 2 days before being dried for 12-16 days. The result is a bright, fruity cup with prominent notes of peach, citrus, and vanilla with candy-like sweetness.
