We are excited to introduce our new season coffee, the Puma Estate, an exotic selection from the renowned Colombian Exotic Coffee Growers. This distinctive offering is sourced from the award-winning Manantiales del Frontino farm, located on a hill in the Central Andes mountains near Caicedonia in the Valle del Cauca region of Colombia.
The farm, which won 1st and 3rd place in the 2018 Cup of Excellence, is run by Andrés Londoño, a third-generation farmer who combines traditional values with innovative methods. The primary variety grown is Castillo, a Colombian hybrid specially adapted to the region's conditions, cultivated at altitudes ranging from 1450 to 1750 meters above sea level.
This coffee is processed using the innovative Wet Exothermic Cherry method, which involves two distinct aerobic fermentations (a 24-hour fruit hydrolysis followed by a tank fermentation after depulping). The cherries are then carefully dried in a mechanical silo with temperature control below 40∘Celsius to enhance sweetness and reduce bitterness.
Brew, Sip & Enjoy Brewing!
