About The Farm
  • This coffee comes from Jairo Arcila’s farm, Santa Mónica, in Quindío, Colombia. The cherries underwent a 72-hour dry anaerobic fermentation with the pulp intact, enriched with passion fruit pulp and wine yeast. After fermentation, they were pulped and dried on raised beds to reach optimal moisture. This microlot is 100% Castillo, a varietal developed by the Federación Nacional de Cafeteros, prized for its productivity and resistance to coffee leaf rust. Jairo, a third-generation coffee grower, brings decades of expertise, having worked over 40 years as Mill Manager at Colombia’s second-largest exporter before focusing on his own farm.
  • Coffee is central to Colombia’s identity and economy. It remains the country’s top legal export, supports hundreds of thousands of smallholder families, and shapes cultural traditions and tourism. From the iconic Juan Valdez to the rolling plantations of the Andes, Colombian coffee represents quality, heritage, and a commitment to sustainability—principles that Jairo carries forward in every cup from Santa Mónica.

The addition of blackberries during fermentation imparts their natural sugars, organic acids, and fruity characteristics into the coffee, amplifying its sweetness and complexity. Wine yeast, commonly used in winemaking, brings precision and control to the fermentation process. It enhances the development of rich, layered flavours by promoting the production of esters and other aromatic compounds. Together, the blackberries and wine yeast work in harmony to create a coffee with vibrant fruit notes and a refined, wine-like quality.

After fermentation, the cherries were pulped and carefully dried on raised beds to achieve the ideal moisture content, ensuring the flavours are locked in and the coffee’s quality is preserved.
