Our juicy Colombian coffee plug is back with the goods once again! Ernedis Rodriguez runs his beautiful 14 hectare farm aptly named El Paraiso, "The Paradise" in English, sitting at 1,840 meters above sea level. As a half natural reserve, half specialty coffee farm, Mr. Rodriguez produces specialty grade Caturra and baseline Castillo varietals to cater to the market.
Ripe cherries are floated, de-pulped, and dry fermented for 48 hours. After washing, they're laid in greenhouses to dry 18-25 days
This coffee is sourced through
The Coffee Quest, who say Ernedis is one of the most hard working and intelligent farmers they know, "juicioso" as the Colombians call it. We are super grateful for the hard work done on the part of the producer and importer and as always, humbly hope we roast and serve the coffee to honor that!
We taste juicy blackberry, lime acidity, and sweet cane sugar
