Roaster Note

Opening with the aroma of strawberry preserves and rose petals, this coffee blooms into a cup of red apple acidity and creamy, honey-like texture. The sweetness is deep yet elegant, reminiscent of fruit compote and vanilla cream.

A light-medium roast preserves its delicate aromatics while rounding the acidity for a balanced, juicy profile. 

Bean Info

Perched among the misty ridges of Antioquia, Finca La Luisa has become a symbol of Colombia’s experimental coffee movement. Guided by a deep curiosity for fermentation science, the farm’s producers have developed a series of fruit-infused honey processes designed to amplify natural sweetness and aroma.

For this lot, ripe Caturra cherries are fermented with fresh strawberries in a controlled anaerobic environment. The fruit sugars interact with the coffee’s own mucilage, creating a slow, layered fermentation that infuses the beans with subtle berry esters and floral tones. After fermentation, the cherries are partially honey-dried on raised beds, allowing the coffee to retain both its clean structure and its vivid fruit perfume.

The result is a cup that embodies Antioquia’s innovative spirit—bright, fragrant, and indulgently sweet—bridging traditional craftsmanship with modern flavor experimentation.
