Origin Story

For our latest selection we've returned to Huila's Danilo Perez, but this time we've opted for his 120 hour (as opposed to 200 hour) anaerobic natural caturra. It's deep, complex and syrupy sweet, with notes of dark chocolate, raspberry and rose.

Danilo is the son of farm and dry-mill owning parents, and has been involved with coffee from a very young age. Inspired by his experience of coffee whilst travelling in Australia, Danilo became a certified Q-Grader, and returned home determined to implement more modern processing techniques back at the family farm.

He recently took up the challenge of producing more experimental lots, and the results blew Mike away on the cupping table during his most recent trip to Colombia. For this lot the ripe, hand-selected cherries are placed into airtight plastic containers for 120 hours, before being laid out to dry on parabolic beds.

The results are outstanding, and we’re excited to showcase yet another another exceptional coffee from Danilo as Penny Sweet.
