Description

Colombia La Serena is a honey processed and peach osmotic dehydration treated coffee. This producer, Juan Puerta is a young, first-generation Colombian coffee producer, who entered into the industry through university studies. As a student at the local university, Juan studied food science, with agriculture and gastronomy being of utmost importance to Colombian culture and the economy. For this coffee, cherries are selectively picked and brought to the processing center in burlap bags. After 12 hours, the cherries are sorted and floated to separate out damaged, under- or overripe cherries, and otherwise defective cherries and seeds. From there, the cherries are taken to a depulper, from which the freshly depulped seeds, retaining their mucilage, fall into a barrel lined with plastic. Juan then slices up ripe peaches and creates a solution of water and glucose that he mixes in with the coffee before sealing the bag and barrel shut. After 48 hours, the bag is unsealed and the coffee spread onto patios to dry under the sun for an average of 15 days.
