La Glorieta Estate Washed Caturra by Hernando Arcila

Produced by Hernando Arcila from the single estate La Glorieta. This coffee is harvested following strict ripeness criteria, floated, and hand-sorted to remove defects. Cherries were then exposed to 30 hours of underwater fermentation before being pulped. The parchment was then gently washed and then dried in temperature-controlled conditions until ideal moisture content was achieved.

This microlot is 100% Caturra. This variety originated in Minas Gerais, Brazil. It is a natural mutation of Red Bourbon. Caturra produces more coffee and is more resistant to plant diseases than Bourbon.

We think it tastes like..  Stone fruits, Milk Chocolate, Molasses.
