About this coffee

Origin: Colombia Region: Cauca / and others Processing: washed / natural / honey Altitude: 1900 - 2150 m n. p. m. Cupping score: 86 / 100 ABOUT THE FARM AND PRODUCERS This exceptionally clean and complex lot is the result of the work of four small producers from the Cauca region. Willian Hoyos, Julián Sandoval, Rubén Castillo, and Yovany Muñoz cultivate coffee on small, multi-hectare farms in the El Tambo microregion, located west of Popayán, the capital of the Cauca department. PROCESSING A single-variety Castillo, hand-harvested and depulped immediately after the cherries are picked. The beans are fermented for approximately 36 hours in a tank, then washed three times to completely remove any remaining mucilage from the parchment. They are slow-dried for around 15 days on raised beds, then homogenized and stabilized for several more days. ROASTER'S OPINION You can’t drink the same blend twice. Heraclitus already knew that, and we trust the guy. What he couldn’t quite grasp was that life is like helium-6 isotope – an outrageously unstable joke of the universe. We know this, and that’s how Elixir was born. Wildly unstable, always sweet. Different every time, always fruity. We throw our best coffees into it, because honestly, who’s going to stop us? Take a sip of Elixir and feel… however you want to feel. Store in a cold and dry space.
