Tasting Notes: Raspberry, Pineapple, Sweet Tea Region: Totoró municipality, Cauca department, Colombia Farm: Various Smallholders Altitude: 1840-2095 masl Varietals: Castillo Process: Washed *This lot rewards a bit of patience after roasting. After a few weeks of rest, it gains clarity, sweetness, and a more defined layered structure. Brewed gently and ground a little finer than usual, it presents a subtle, structured cup that continues to evolve as it cools. Sourced through Banexport and produced by seven smallholder farms, this coffee reflects Colombia’s long tradition of family-run cultivation and collaborative quality development. Each producer operates a micro-mill, carefully harvesting ripe cherries before overnight maceration, followed by depulping, controlled fermentation, washing, and slow drying on raised beds. Banexport supports these producers with technical guidance and export logistics, connecting precise farm-level work with international markets while strengthening long-term sustainability for farming families.
