This coffee is a Castillo variety from Finca Milan in the Risaralda region of Colombia, grown at an altitude of 1600 meters. It undergoes a unique Niu cultured washed process, where cherries are fermented with a starter culture of yeast, bacteria, and coconut for 5-10 days before being washed and dried. The resulting cup offers a creamy mouthfeel with distinct flavor notes of toasted coconut, white rum, and nutmeg.
