About beans:

In 2017 Fernando Bocanegra is motivated by a great friend of his to start growing coffee. This friend had great experience working  in several coffee farms in different roles. Fernando thought about it a lot and finally decided to leave his profession (chef) aside and devote himself to the great world of coffee growing.

They found a farm with exceptional climate and soil conditions, where they knew they would start their new project. El Oasis farm is located at 2,150 meters above sea level in the municipality of Ortega-Tolima. For 6 years, very high quality coffees have been produced at El Oasis. Fernando is dedicated to coffee –  the idea that motivated them was always to undertake something different, that would stand out above the traditional coffee production in the area.

For this natural Geisha lot the cherries and handpicked and selected to only keep the ripest ones. After picking, the cherries are floated to remove floaters and foreign matter. Once this is finished, the cherries undergo a short (12h) anaerobic fermentation in plastic tanks at a temperature of 20 – 22 degrees. Then, cherries are dried in marquesinas for 18 – 20 days at an average temperature of 27 degrees, stirring the coffee four times a day for even drying.

The result is an incredibly sweet, clean and complex cup of coffee. Expect flavours of apricot, rose petals, and straweberry jam.
