Coffee Process

Process

Anaerobic Washed

Varietal

Chiroso

Elevation

1,850-2,000 masl

The Chiroso coffee variety has gained popularity in the last few years due to its unique flavor profile. For this lot, ripe cherries are carefully hand-harvested, selected, and floated before being de-pulped and submerged in stainless steel tanks for an 8-day water fermentation. After fermentation, the coffee is washed, then mechanically dried until reaching 10.5–11.5% moisture.

This particular lot consists of a delicate, tea-like cup with white florals, herbs, raw sugar sweetness, and bright acidity. We chose this Chiroso not only for its unique, floral-sweet profile but also to honor the legacy and commitment of Carmen Montoya as a community leader and mentor in Urrao. Her coffee, the unique Caturra Chiroso variety, is a testament to her dedication, even winning the prestigious “Cup of Excellence” in 2014.

What if my package is delayed?

Sometimes our shipping partners experience delays due to weather, heightened demand, technical issues, pandemics, or aliens. All of which is out of our hands, except the aliens, but that's not for here.

If your package is delayed, let us know and we'll track it down and escalate its delivery. If it's delayed more than 2 weeks past the shipment date, and your order includes coffee, we'll either refund your money or ship you fresh coffee at no cost.
Can my coffee be ground?

By you? Yes. By us, sadly, no. Currently, we can only ship whole-bean coffee.
When will my order ship?

Freshness is critical to fully enjoying coffee. We roast to order to ensure your coffee is at peak freshness when it arrives. We roast to order and ship Monday-Thursday. Orders are usually fulfilled the production day after they are placed (for example, orders placed on Monday will ship on Tuesday). Orders placed Thursday-Sunday will be fulfilled and shipped on Monday.
