This coffee is a Papayo variety grown by Pastor Ordoñez at his farm, El Placer, in San Agustín, Colombia, at an elevation of 1800 meters. The cherries are fermented in sealed bags and hoppers before being depulped and dry fermented for 36 hours. After being washed multiple times, the coffee is dried on raised beds for up to one month. This lot offers a bright and refreshing flavor profile with notes of orange sorbet, lemongrass, and green papaya.
Based in Philadelphia, Poem Coffee Roasters operates as a tiny boutique roasting company dedicated to ultra small batch production at the highest level. Their entire production schedule revolves around a single roasting day each week, with all coffees roasted to order exclusively on Tuesdays. This practice allows them to capture seasonally sourced specialty beans that reflect fleeting points in time, creating a limited and intentional coffee experience that celebrates the unique characteristics of each harvest.
