Jairo Arcila should be a name you have become familiar with over the years. We have featured several of his coffees. From Carbonic Macerated to Natural to Gesha. This is another coffee that arrived to us via the folks at Cofinet. Jairo's sons Carolos and Felipe actually founded the exporter. We feature a number of coffees from these folks every year.

The Arcila's and Cofinet work with farmers throughout Colombia and have developed a reputation for experimental fermentation techniques, unique coffees, and top quality. You can find Jairo and Cofinet coffees with what we consider the best roasters in the country.
This coffee certainly fits into that experimental fermentation category. Honey processed castillo undergoes a 72 hour anaerobic fermentation with strawberries and wine yeast. The results? An incredibly sweet and fruit forward coffee. We find Strawberry compote, Dark Chocolate, Cherry, Lime, etc. Super complex stuff.
