About Hacienda El Obraje

Pablo Andrés Guerrero grows this Typica at Hacienda El Obraje in Tangua, Nariño. The estate's coffee is grown at approximately 2,200 meters and its planting program includes both traditional Colombian cultivars and separately managed specialty varieties.

Variety

Typica is one of the foundational Arabica varieties. It is a tall plant with relatively low yields and susceptibility to major coffee diseases, but strong cup-quality potential under suitable growing conditions.

Processing

Honey processing removes the cherry skin and pulp, then dries the coffee with some sticky mucilage remaining on the parchment. The name refers to that fruit layer; it does not mean honey is added. Fermentation and drying affect the resulting texture and aromatic expression.
