Monteblanco

This funky coffee comes from the famous Finca Monteblanco, nestled at 1730 meters altitude in the hills above Pitalito.

Under the visionary leadership of producer Rodrigo Sanchez, this micro-farm has become a true innovation laboratory, globally recognized for its innovative fermentation processes.

For this batch, the coffee cherries are fermented with red fruit nectar and yeasts to enhance the aromatic complexity.

The result in the cup is full of indulgence, revealing intense notes of strawberry and blueberry, enveloped in a smooth texture reminiscent of yogurt, for a sweet and incredibly fruity finish that pushes the boundaries of the Colombian terroir.

Produced by Rodrigo Sanchez in the Pitalito region of Colombia, this Monteblanco lot represents the meticulous work of a dedicated producer. Roasted by Dayglow, the coffee is characterized by distinct notes of strawberry, blueberry, and yogurt. While specific processing methods can significantly influence the final cup, coffees from this region often reflect the unique microclimates found within the Huila department.

When evaluating the profile of a coffee like this, it is helpful to reference the flavor wheel to better identify the nuances of fruit-forward acidity and creamy textures. Because this coffee is grown at 1730 masl, it benefits from the specific environmental conditions of Pitalito, which are frequently associated with high-quality production. By focusing on the interplay between these specific tasting notes and the regional characteristics of the harvest, drinkers can gain a deeper appreciation for the craftsmanship involved in bringing this particular lot to the roastery.
