Armenia is located in the Quindío region, a breathtaking landscape at the northern edge of the Andes. It is here that Jairo Arcila, an experienced producer, draws on all his expertise to produce balanced, refined and quintessentially Colombian coffees.
He works alongside his wife Luz Helena Salazar and their two sons, Carlos and Felipe Arcila at the Casa Negra farm. Jairo loves to start his days with a good breakfast, but above all he enjoys spending time with his family.
This microlot is 100% Caturra, harvested according to strict ripeness criteria and then floated and hand-sorted to remove any defects. The cherries were then exposed to 30 hours of underwater fermentation before being pulped. The parchment was gently washed and then dried in temperature-controlled conditions until the ideal moisture content was achieved.
