Rob says: 2021 is going to be a break through year for Special processing methods. In this instance the coffee is a washed one with a twist. Here Juan has allowed the cherry to ferment for 98 hours before pulping. This gives the coffee more body and sweetness.

Juan Saldarriaga is a young producer who took over his family’s farms in 2012 and started to plant several different and new cultivars, everything from unusual Castillos, Caturras and Tabis to Bourbon, Geisha and SL28s, among others. So far he has been figuring out how each variety performs in the environment. In the future he plans to increase production of the varieties that thrive.
