Colombia Jairo Arcila

Pineapple gummies, maple syrup. Refined & complex.

When a unique variety of coffee is processed in an experimental way you can be sure the result will be something really special. 

Grown by Jairo Arcila at the Villarazo farm, this coffee thrives at 1,400 to 1,450 meters above sea level, benefiting from 1,900 to 2,200 mm of annual rainfall and rich volcanic ash soil. The cherries underwent a 24-hour dry aerobic fermentation, followed by 50 hours in Grainpro bags below 22°C, and were then dried on raised beds to 11% moisture content. This micro-lot is 100% Rume Sudan, a rare, disease-resistant variety from the high plateaus of Sudan, known for its medium yield and large, elongated beans, delivering a uniquely refined coffee experience.
