Roaster Notes
The 'La Cristalina' plantation, owned by the Grajales family for over a century, is nestled near Quimbaya in Quindío, Colombia. Maria Mercedes Grajales, the 5th generation owner, oversees the 19-hectare estate, with 14 hectares dedicated to coffee cultivation, primarily the Castillo variety. The plantation also features a mix of orange, platano, and cafatero trees. The natural lot emphasizes selective picking for optimal maturity. Long-term pickers, employed for over a decade, are well-compensated for their expertise. Cherries undergo intensive floating to remove defects before drying in the sun for 48 hours. The coffee is then placed in GrainPro for 36 hours to enhance its fruity notes. Fermentation involves careful monitoring of temperature and pH, with the drying process taking around 15 days, depending on weather conditions.
