This excellent lot was processed by 15 female coffee farmers from the Asobombo Cooperative in Huila. In the Pitalito region, most farms are around 3-5 hectares, making them slightly larger than in the rest of Huila. The region saw increased settlement in the 19th and 20th centuries due to its abundant fertile land. Generally, Huila is considered one of the best coffee-growing regions in Colombia, a country already renowned for its exceptionally high coffee quality. The women of the Asobombo Cooperative hand-pick their ripe, sweet cherries themselves and begin processing directly on the farm. After depulping, the coffee beans ferment for 12-36 hours in water tanks. The parchment is then washed and dried on covered raised beds. Due to the high humidity in the region, the parchment is turned particularly often to ensure even drying. This summery, bright filter coffee shines with a fruity-sweet taste of redcurrant and citrus zest, tea-like aromas reminiscent of green Sencha tea, and a delicate finish of biscuit.
