COLOMBIA | Javier Rubio
COLOMBIA : JAVIER RUBIO
Region: Gaitania, TOLIMA
Process: Natural - anaerobic fermentation
Altitude: 1600 - 1650masl
Varietal: Caturra
Cupping Notes: stewed fruits . toffee apple
Acidity: mild-high
Brew Method: Espresso, Filter, Black
Sourcing: Cofinet
Cultivated amongst 15 native tree species on a 5.5Ha farm, this 100% Caturra microlot is the first naturally processed coffee that Javier has produced. Alongside his brother Hector, the Rubio brothers are members of the Tres Rayas Coffee Coop. Javier also participated in animal conservation locally.
After being handpicked, these cherries were hand sorted and exposed to a dry extended anaerobic fermentation period of 24 hours. The coffee was then placed on raised beds for 21 days until ideal moisture was achieved. The Caturra varietal produces more cherry and is more resistant to disease compared to other Bourbon varieties.
