ABOUT THE FARM AND THE COFFEE

“Manos Juntas” in Spanish means “Hands Together.” This is the name of a coffee processing station that serves as a platform for cooperation between importers and local farmers in the Cauca region of Colombia. Coffee here is most often processed using the natural or honey method, and experiments with aerobic fermentation are also common.

Fun fact: Our coffee lot was delivered to the station on the very day of harvest. Its parameters were then evaluated, and the cherries were placed in large hermetic tanks for 5 days of anaerobic fermentation. At the appropriate moment, the coffee is exposed to a temperature of 20°C to halt fermentation and remove yeast. The cherries then “mature” in the tanks for another 5 days before being transferred to solar dryers. Drying takes 30 to 45 days.

Store in a cold and dry space.
