JULIO CESAR MADRID, Colombia (Culturing Fermentation Washed)

Blossom Bloom is a coffee that catches your attention from the first sip with its clarity and aromatic complexity. In the cup, it develops notes of peach, Earl Grey, and cantaloupe, supported by a medium body, balanced acidity, and a high sweetness that lingers long in the aftertaste.

The coffee comes from La Riviera, Julio Cesar Madrid's farm, located in Santa Rosa de Cabal, in the Risaralda region of Colombia. La Riviera is one of the farms recognized for its extremely careful approach to coffee cultivation and processing, as well as for experimenting with modern controlled fermentation methods. The farm is part of Café UBA, a group of producers who emphasize precision, consistency, and expressive cup profiles. 

This lot is made from the Pink Bourbon variety, appreciated for its floral and fruity profile, with a clarity sometimes reminiscent of Gesha coffees. At an altitude of 1800m, the cherries develop slowly, accumulating more sweetness and aromatic complexity.

The "Culturing Fermentation Washed" process takes the coffee to an extremely interesting sensory area. Fermentation is carefully controlled to accentuate fruity elegance and aromatic complexity, without compromising the clarity specific to a well-executed washed coffee. The result is a vibrant, clean, and sophisticated coffee, where floral and fruity notes complement each other naturally.
