Colombia Felipe Trujillo Yellow Colombia - Anaerobic Natural
Most of you are already familiar with Felipe, but in case you’re not let us remind you a little bit of his background. Felipe took a brave step leaving his job as a CEO here in Dallas TX to begin producing coffee years ago, while developing his skills Felipe applied his knowledge of fermentation from his time in the wine industry to coffee production resulting in incredibly complex and unique coffees; this Yellow Colombia varietal is a great example of his work.
This coffee was fermented for Anaerobically (meaning with little to no oxygen) for 7 days as opposed to a more typical 2-4 days that you’ll see from many producers. Every day that a coffee is fermented comes with an increased risk of over-fermentation where coffees can taste sour or like rotted fruit, but this coffee expresses incredibly boozy and complex, with a nearly malty/ milk-chocolatey sweetness, a testament to Felipe’s skill in coffee production and fermentation.
We bought this coffee directly from Felipe’s farm La Ventolera which means that every dime that we spent goes to him and his staff, we’re excited for you to enjoy the fruits of his labor and ours.
