Ripe Pineapple, Bright Acidity & Hops
Ripe pineapple, bright acidity, and hops. This is the second harvest pass from Jhon Alexander Bermudez’s garden of Chiroso. As one of the cornerstone producers in our Urrao project, Jhon Alexander continues to produce exceptional quality year after year.
John Alexander, his wife, and their two young daughters work together to sustain their farm. Urrao has long been one of Colombia’s most exciting and underrepresented coffee-growing regions. Though remote and historically challenging to work in, it offers extraordinary potential for cup quality through its extreme elevations and the Ethiopian variety known colloquially as Chiroso.
Chiroso is a new variety being grown primarily in the region of Antioquia, Colombia. The variety has been genetically identified as an Ethiopian Landrace. We have been working very hard building a buying program in the region of Urrao specifically around the variety of Chiroso.
Processing: Hand-picked at peak ripeness. Floated to further remove defects. De-pulped on the day of harvest. Fermented underwater for eight days. Washed. Dried on raised beds until moisture content reaches 10.5%.

Nice experience in the process; the seller is very helpful and responsive as well
The aroma opened with very prominent honey notes, which were quite inviting. As an espresso, the chocolate tones and sweetness came through pretty strongly, leaning more toward the sweet side than bitter, which is exactly what i wanted.
