THE DEETS

Fruity-funky-sweet banger from Andres Cardona!

Andres Cardona is pushing the boundaries of coffee at his farm, Villa Lucía. He has been working in coffee since he was 12. Andres studied advanced processing techniques under his mentor, Felipe Trujillo. He’s become well known for his meticulous standards, experimental mindset, and wildly delicious coffees.

This lot begins with careful hand selection of perfectly ripe cherries, followed by careful visual and density sorting. The cherries are then sealed in tanks and fermented for 96 hours in water with sugar cane honey to a target sweetness of 15%. After fermentation, the fruit is rinsed and dried in mechanical dryers to 11% moisture before being hulled, sorted, and stored for export.

The cup is sweet and fruity with fun, funky flavors, think raspberry sweetness, port wine depth, and chocolate lava cake decadence.

REST IN PEACE

We recommend letting fresh coffee rest to allow the beans to stabilize. This will result in a sweeter, more expressive cup. We rest washed coffees 5–10 days, naturals 10–15 days, and experimentals 15–30 days.
