About this coffee :

Finca Isabel is located in the colony of Bolinda, which lies in a lush, steep mountain valley around 10 kilometres outside of the town of Caranavi. 

At Finca Isabel, they hire pickers from the Bolinda community to carefully hand pick the coffee during the harvest. These pickers are trained to select only the very ripest cherries, and multiple passes are made through the farm throughout the harvest to ensure the coffee is picked at its prime.

Ripe cherry is brought to the factory before it undergoes processing to remove the skin and pulp – known as the wet processing method. After the coffee was delivered, it was placed into a floatation tank and all floaters were removed.  The factory is using a disc pulper with three sets of discs to remove the skin and fruit from the inner parchment layer that is protecting the green coffee bean.

After pulping, the coffee is fermented overnight to break down the sugars, before it is cleaned, soaked and spread out on the raised drying tables. Drying time will depend on the climate, temperature, and volume of coffee. But it generally takes from 7 to 15 days in total.

The drying was then finished off at a very low temperature in a stationary drier. The coffee was then transported to La Paz where it was rested and then milled at the Rodriguez family’s brand new dry mill. At the mill, the coffee was carefully screened again by machines and also by hand to remove any defects.

This coffee is super duper sweet & juicy! Lovely floral qualities & lots of red fruit notes like berries, pomegranate & red apple. A great fruity coffee to start your day!
