PROCESS

Cultivated at Finca El Paraíso in Cauca, this washed Papayo coffee reflects the region’s humid climate, volcanic soils, high altitude, and biodiversity. Carefully selected at optimal ripeness, the cherries undergo ozone disinfection, controlled anaerobic fermentation with Lactobacillus, and a precise thermal wash. Dehumidified drying preserves moisture consistency and delicate aromatics. The resulting cup is clean, refined, and vibrant, offering delicate floral and herbal nuances, sweet citrus notes, and a juicy, complex acidity that highlights the variety’s distinctive terroir.
