Pomelo Brûlée

$26.00

Pomelo Brûlée is an anaerobic washed Caturra microlot from Finca El Placer in San Agustin, Huila, grown by Daniel Mauricio Bolanos Zuniga. The fermentation process is deliberate and hands-on: cherries go through a two-stage anaerobic rest before being pulped, re-fermented, washed, and dried on raised or parabolic beds for up to 25 days. The result is layered and refined. Bright pomelo up front, settling into salted caramel and vanilla custard. Clean, structured, and surprisingly approachable for a processed coffee.

Sourcing with Integrity

Finca El Placer is a 5-hectare farm in San Agustin, Huila, operated by Daniel Mauricio Bolanos Zuniga as part of the Asociacion los Naranjos. The farm sits at 1,700 masl and is home to up to 11,000 coffee trees alongside other produce. Daniel's fermentation process is what sets this lot apart. Harvested cherries are floated to remove impurities, then placed in open containers for 48 hours before being pulped and returned for a second 72-hour fermentation with a small amount of water. The coffee is then washed and moved to African raised beds or parabolic dryers for 20–25 days. Huila accounts for nearly 20% of Colombia's total coffee production, with 80% of farms under three hectares. This lot was sourced through Cafe Imports as part of their Colombian microlot program, which requires an 87+ cup score and full traceability to the producer.
