Colombia El Puente Honey Processed Specilaity Grade Coffee

Colombia El Puente Speciality Grade Coffee

This amazing coffee is grown in the Palestina, Huila region of Colombia at heights of sea level varying between 1550m and 1980m.

El Puente Mill, built in 2018, is a central processing facility in the Palestina region of Huila, Colombia. Named after a nearby footbridge, it serves over 100 small-scale farming families who deliver their coffee cherries for processing. Designed to handle larger volumes than individual farm mills, El Puente enables producers with limited resources to sell their coffee at premium prices, even before processing.

Flavour notes: Honey, Mint, Panela, Sugar Cane and Sweet Lime

Process: Honey Process - Sun Dried

Varietal: Castillo – Caturra – Colombia – Bourbon

Fermentation: Harvested cherries ferment in sacks for 24 hours. Afterward, they undergo an additional 24–36 hours of fermentation in sacks at the mill.
Drying: De-pulped cherries, with mucilage intact, are sun-dried for 25–27 days. The remaining mucilage enhances sweetness, adding depth to the final cup.

Gold Collection Coffees

We select the very best coffees  to become part of our prestigious Gold Collection.

All our Gold Collection coffees are frozen and vacuum packed(into 2x 125g bags) directly after roasting to ensure they stay as fresh as the day it was roasted, up to 9 months after roasting.

We recommend that they are not refrozen but rather used as soon as possible after receiving them. In some cases it may seem like the bags have lost their vacuum but this is not the case. As the coffee beans emit gasses the whole time the bag may start to blow up softly appearing like the vacuum was lost.

The whole idea of vacuum packaging in this case is to remove the oxygen from the bag to avoid oxidization.
