Castillo Coffee

Castillo from Caicedonia, Valle del Cauca

Fragrance and aroma of vanilla, almonds, and molasses; chocolate and yellow fruit flavors with notes of banana and pineapple; long finish.

This distinctive lot hails from Alegrías, a premier farm nestled in the high-altitude terrain of Caicedonia, Valle del Cauca. Cultivated by Aneth Chocontá, the harvest is a testament to refined agricultural dedication and a sophisticated post-harvest approach. The beans are processed through a washed method utilizing a controlled fermentation of 40 to 60 hours, a precision technique that elevates the coffee's natural sweetness and aromatic clarity before it is prepared for its journey abroad.

Thriving at an elevation of 1,700 m.a.s.l., the Castillo trees produce a dense, high-quality cherry that translates into a sophisticated flavor profile in the cup. With a Q Score of 85.5, this selection exemplifies the excellence of Colombian specialty coffee, offering a complex yet highly consistent experience for the discerning palate.
