Popayan is sheltered by the Andes mountain range, creating consistent climatic and altitudinal conditions. These factors contribute to the development of coffee beans with sweet and citrus profiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe work closely with approximately 75 growers who have contributed to this program and with whom we have established long-term relationships. Through this program, farmers are incentivized to prioritize quality, and based on assessments, we offer premiums of up to 20% above market prices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the careful selection of coffee cherries, these are then de-pulped and thoroughly washed to completely remove the mucilage. Afterward, the coffee is spread out on raised beds for 5-7 days until reaching the ideal moisture content. This method ensures the preservation of the coffee's unique flavors and characteristics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE DECAF PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis decaffeination process is unique.

After this, the beans are submerged in spring water and, as soon as the coffee is saturated with water, it is sent to the extractors where the beans have direct contact with sugar cane ethyl acetate for 8 hours, which dissolves the caffeine content. The decaffeinated coffee is then dried in a chamber to reach the same moisture content it had prior to the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupplied green and unroasted for home and small-batch roasting.
