This Aji cupped blind like a Kenyan coffee for us, a bit of an amuse-bouche for the upcoming season of East African coffees.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMario Fernando Gómez operates La Soledad, a farm that the Gomez family has owned since the 1960s and which achieved recognition as a Cup of Excellence finalist in 2009. Spanning 22 hectares and showcasing contemporary Colombian agronomy, Mario maintains an extensive collection of varieties including Yellow and Red Geisha, Sidra, Pink Bourbon, Orange Bourbon, Yellow Etiope, Aji, Striped Bourbon, Caturrón, and Chiroso.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMario has branched out into producing a lot of the modern high intervention style of coffees - a bit of a microcosm of the wider Colombian industry, with the shift from commercial production, to rare variety planting, to now offering a diverse set of processes. We've sourced this one through Nordic, who naturally gravitate towards the lower intervention techniques. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe’re tasting: \u003cbr\u003eRich red-fruit aromatics - we're finding plum, raspberry, cherry \u0026amp; grapefruit zest. In the cup it's dense \u0026amp; syrupy, reminding us of Kenyan coffee - rhubarb, redcurrant and ripe persimmon while warm, with a honeycomb sweetness and sparkling acidity. As it cools we get a sweet ruby grapefruit note with brown sugar, black tea \u0026amp; hibiscus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Scenery Coffee","offers":[{"title":"200 gr","offer_id":57754506035574,"sku":"SJDDAJI200","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0927\/9163\/6342\/files\/colombia_la_soledad_aji.png?v=1777228400","url":"https:\/\/kultivarcoffee.com\/products\/la-soledad-9-aji-25-26-colombia","provider":"Kultivar Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
