About This Coffee

This exceptional Bourbon Sidra coffee is produced by Sebastián Ramírez at El Placer Farms in the Quindío region of Colombia. Grown at altitudes between 1,300 and 1,600 meters, this lot undergoes a Red Honey process with anaerobic fermentation, which enhances its natural sweetness and complexity. The cup profile is vibrant and elegant, featuring distinct notes of mandarin, grapefruit, berries, and honey. It offers a bright, juicy acidity with a silky medium body and a clean, lingering finish of candied citrus and caramelized sugar.
