Farm and Producer

Faustino Reyes produces this Caturra selection from La Palma y El Tucan, Zipacon, Cundinamarca, Colombia. The growing elevation for this lot is 1800 masl.

Variety

Caturra is a compact, naturally occurring mutation of Bourbon that became widely cultivated in Latin America. Its smaller stature allows closer planting, while careful cultivation and processing remain important to its cup quality.

Processing

In washed processing, the fruit pulp and remaining mucilage are removed before the coffee is dried. This approach often emphasizes a defined structure and separation of flavors, while fermentation and drying choices still influence the result.
