ABOUT THE FARM

Finca Alta Clara is located in the mountainous Buesaco region of Nariño, at an altitude of 2200 to 2400 meters above sea level. The four-hectare farm, entirely planted with coffee, belongs to Laureano Gómez — a second-generation producer and former teacher who decided to leave his career in education to fully dedicate himself to developing the family farm and producing specialty coffees.

Laureano brought back to life an estate that had been neglected for years, building a project based on quality, experimentation, and a conscious approach to production. Together with his brother, he is responsible for both the daily work on the farm and the sale of their coffees. On different plots, he cultivates varieties such as Gesha, Pink Bourbon, and Castillo, constantly developing processing methods to search for even higher quality coffee.

This specific lot of Gesha was selected from among the best coffees in the Nariño region during the La Mejor Taza de Nariño competition. It then went to the auction of the best lots, where it was won by Adam Laska — co-owner of the KAFAR roastery — who had previously participated in the competition as a judge.

ABOUT THE PROCESSING

The processing starts with the manual harvesting of fully ripe cherries. Next, the coffee undergoes a four-day anaerobic fermentation in sealed jute bags kept in the cool climate of the Alta Clara region. The next stage is an eight-day anaerobic fermentation in airtight steel tanks, which deepens the sweetness, texture, and complexity of the sensory profile.

After fermentation, the coffee is dried for 15–20 days in parabolic dryers, which ensures uniform airflow. The final stage is manual selection and a 15-day stabilization period in jute bags.

In the cup, the coffee presents an elegant and refined character with notes of guava, sweet cherry, and muscovado sugar, supported by a creamy texture and a long, sweet finish. This is a limited lot created for the most demanding consumers who brew coffee using filter methods.

Store in a dry and cool place.
