This extra special microlot comes from Finca Villa Betulia, a farm located near Acevedo in the Huila region of Colombia. It is owned by Luis Anibal, a second-generation coffee grower who has been involved in producing coffee since the age of 12 on his father's farm. At the age of 15 he was gifted a small portion of his fathers farm with which he was able to save up enough money to buy his first ever coffee farm. He has since moved on to become one of the first farmers in the region to produce high-end microlots and master alternative processing methods such as this one.

In 2015 Luis Anibal decided to change his whole farm and he began growing exotic coffee varieties. Subsequently, in 2016, Felipe (one of the founders of Cofinet) was hooked after trying Luis' coffees. This was a really important moment as Cofinet and Luis then worked closely together to improve processing techniques and ultimately the quality of the coffee to a really high standard.

This lot was initially exposed to 100 hours of dry anaerobic fermentation after which it was placed in grain pro bags for a further 100 hours and kept at a temperature below 22 degrees. Once done, it was pulped, washed, and allowed to dry on raised beds. We are really excited to share this coffee as we think it's super exciting!
