ABOUT THIS COFFEE

Colombia Rocket Flower lives up to its name.

Jasmine florals, soft honeydew sweetness and bright bergamot lead into a clean Earl Grey finish. Roasted for filter, Rocket Flower is fruity, sweet, and downright delicious.

El Paseo has been in the Castillo family for over 20 years, but third-generation grower Huver Castillo only recently swapped his life as a maths teacher for the farm, joining his father to grow coffee full-time. Sitting pretty at 1800 metres, the farm overlooks the Buesaco Valley, where Caturra trees thrive, shaded under the native trees.

And boy, do those cherries get the royal treatment: a 36-hour pre-ferment, a sea salt cleanse, and a six-day anaerobic fermentation, with added enzymes to dial up the floral notes, before being gently dried and rested for 15 days.
