story
Jairo Arcila is a third-generation coffee grower, based in the Quindio department of Colombia. Jairo purchased his first farm in 1987 and now owns and runs six farms in total. This lot comes from Santa Monica, which sits at 1500masl in Armenia. Jairo received great advice from his sons, Carlos and Felipe, who are the owners and founders of Cofinet. They helped him move into specialty coffee and experiment with more advanced processing techniques.
PROCESSING
Ripe cherries are floated and hand sorted to remove any defects. Cherries undergo a 30-hour fermentation underwater, before being pulped. The parchment is washed and then dried in temperature-controlled conditions.TRACEABILITY
Sourced through Cofinet, a family business of multigenerational Colombian coffee producers. Cofinet started sourcing and exporting specialty coffee in 2015. Now, they represent and support a large number of Colombian producers, as well as exporting coffee from their own farm and processing centre, La Pradera.
