Harvest: 2023 El Refugio – Colombia – Washed David and his brother, Abraham, have been cultivating coffee for over 30 years. They started by following commercial standards, but gradually, they have leaned towards specialty coffee and ventured into exotic varieties. Initially, they used to blend their specialty coffee with that of other producers in the region through an association called Mártir to sell it as a batch. But now, they grow enough coffee to produce their own batch, which they process with great care, resulting in better quality and traceability. For this batch, the cherries, handpicked, are allowed to rest for 24 hours after being collected. Then, they are pulped and left to ferment in a dry process for another 24 hours. Afterward, they are washed and placed on raised beds to dry.
