story
doña Yubely consistently finds a favourite in her farm’s classic washed caturra, normally prepared with a v-60.
The ripe cherries were harvested and sent down the duct system built along a ridge of the steep property to the dry mill. They were floated for quality and then pulped immediately, placed into a tank below. They remain in the tank, covered with water, for approximately 2 days before being laid out to dry, first on covered greenhouse (marquesina) floors, and then on raised beds for 20 days total.
The coffee was then milled locally in oporapa, hand-sorted for quality by don wilfredo’s parents, and sent to the native root bodega in bogota before being imported by lulo.
