Colombia — Cata Reserva Year 2

Tasting notes

In the roaster’s words

Colombia — Cata Reserva Year 2 Grown on a sunlit 4.5-acre plot of mature Castillo trees, this lot was selectively hand-sorted before processing. Ripe cherries underwent 2–3 days of open-tank oxidation. The cherries were then pulped to remove the mucilage, before undergoing four days of sealed fermentation with coffee mosto – sugars from previous fermentations – and panela, an unrefined whole cane sugar. This controlled approach encourages a thorough fermentation while avoiding unwanted alcohol-like flavours.
