Sourcing and Processing

This coffee was grown by Edwin Noreña on Finca Campo Hermoso. His farm is located in the northern highlands of Circasia, Quindío, Colombia. Part of the coffee growing axis, Circasia is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for coffee. World Heritage Sites are landmarks and areas protected by an international treaty for having cultural, historical, or scientific significance.

Edwin Noreña is a coffee farmer, a trained agronomist, an instructor, a coffee consultant, a Q-grader, and a judge for the Colombian Cup of Excellence. His unique coffees are the result of his life-long pursuit of flavor based on knowledge, experience, and experimentation.

This experimental process starts with hand picked perfectly ripe cherries. First they are floated and sorted per density. The selected cherries are placed in sealed drums for a 120 hour anaerobic fermentation phase. After, the cherries are dry pulped (the skin is removed and the mucilage is left in place). The coffee is inoculated with a mix of hops and malt and returned to the drums for an additional 96 hours of anaerobic fermentation. Finally, the coffee is slow dried on rasied beds in the shade. The drying process takes between 20 and 25 days.

This detailed process results in a complex, lively, and unique cup with notes of lilac, juniper berry, Meyer lemon, grapefruit, and lemondrop hops.
