Antonio and his wife, Eby Aracely Samayoa, have worked hard to fine-tune their processing practices in order to have the best possible product. Their dedication has helped take their coffee quality to the next level, and the fantastic results are in the cup.

Antonio’s coffees are processed with utmost care and attention to detail at his mill, which is at 1200 meters - a bit lower than the farm where the plants grow, which means stronger sun and warmer days that are perfect for drying naturals. This year, with the weather a little cooler than usual, the mill’s location was key to ensuring good drying.

Only the ripest red cherries are selected for this lot, and once the cherries are picked they are placed in clean, sealed plastic bags in the shade. He allows this coffee to stay in bags overnight for a short fermentation of no more than 14 hours, and the next morning the coffee is prepared for drying.

Antonio soaks the cherries in water to remove any dust or floaters (immature or malformed beans). They are then placed on raised beds to dry for about 20 days. Milling the dried pods is the final step, which occurs at our dry mill in Fraijanes under the watchful eye of our experienced mill team. Then, the coffee is sorted, bagged, and prepared for export.

This lot reveals a special aromatic profile, with notes of apples, plums, cocoa, sweetened by a scent of vanilla.
