Andres Guaca (Rum Aged Natural) - Colombia

This coffee was exposed to a dry aerobic fermentation of 24 hours. Later, cherries were exposed to a dry anaerobic fermentation of 50 hours inside rum barrels. Later placed on raised beds until ideal moisture content is achieved. Coffee is then once again rested inside rum barrels for 10-20 days.

This microlot is 100% Castillo. This variety was developed by Federación Nacional de Cafeteros. It is more productive than Caturra and resistant to coffee leaf rust.
