Colombia Finca Patio Bonito

On the quest for distinguished coffee, you cannot miss Colombia. Colombia’s
quality reputation stems from hard work and excellent terrain. A unique
topographic characteristic also comes into play when describing the various facets
of Colombian coffees: the three cordilleras of the Andes mountain range. Several
microclimates are formed between and within the mountain ranges, resulting in
exceptional conditions for high-quality coffee production.
Among the more than 20 coffee-producing regions, Cauca stands out in the
southwest of the country. This is where you’ll find Finca Patio Bonito, situated
specifically in the municipality of Caldono. This family-operated finca is owned by
Carlos Arturo Trujillo and run by his daughter, Paola. She studied at the University of
Manizales and is a Chemical Engineer. However, once she started engaging in the
family business – she fell in love with coffee and transitioned into managing the
farm.
Today the farm has 11 hectares, 9 of which are home to some 45,000 trees of
varieties such as Castillo, Colombia, Pink Bourbon, and Wush Wush. Coffees on the
farm are meticulously handpicked. In the case of this washed Pink Bourbon,
cherries are selected when fully ripe, displaying a vibrant pink color. The cherries
are sorted and then anaerobically fermented with mosto and yeast for 90 hours.
The result, you may imagine? We invite you to try it yourself!
