From producer Juan David Puerta at Finca La Sirena in Calarcá, Quindío, this Castillo variety undergoes an elaborate 8-stage thermal shock washed process. The thermal shock technique — alternating temperature extremes during processing — creates a uniquely clean and complex cup with rich chocolate depth and bright citrus acidity.
Red fruits, dark chocolate, and caramel. Citric acidity of orange. Creamy mouthfeel with a lingering finish of panela and dried fruits.
Pour-over recommended at 192°F. Weigh your beans. Take your time.
