Wild Blackberry Bourbon Colombia
The flagship of our catalog. Microlot of Bourbon from Marlon Rojas at Finca La Reserva (Huila), with a washed co-fermented process in two phases that extracts all the character of the berry fruit from which it takes its name. A lively, juicy,...
The origin
Huila, Pitalito — Bruselas, Colombia. At 1,700–1,900 masl the bean ripens slowly, and that slowness is what ends up in the cup.
The harvest
Ripe cherry only, picked by hand, pass after pass across the same slope. What's green stays on the tree.
The processing
Washed co-fermented (96 h submerged + 48 h in mucilage + 15 days of solar drying) process. This is where the sweetness and the clarity of the cup are decided.
The drying
In the sun, on raised beds, turned by hand. No rush and no dryer.
The roast
At our Alcover roastery, on Mondays and Thursdays. Never before it's needed.
