This is made up of Colombia variety, a hybrid of several Catimor varieties initially brought to Colombia due to their resistance to coffee leaf rust during the rust epidemic. This coffee has undergone a meticulous modern style of processing. after the cherry is brought together to the washing station by the over 50 growers. The cherry is first fermented for 48 hours. While constantly monitoring both the temp, and pH to determine the finishing point. After that the cherry is pulped out of it's skin and fermented for another 48 hours, this time underwater in tanks. That is followed by washing and finally solar drying on patios. The hybrid nature of the processing gives this coffee subtle mellow fruit notes, a mild warm spice, and a great sweetness.
