About

Coffee Expression A bright and complex profile with notes of tropical mango, while holding on to the crisp red berry acidity we’ve tasted from so many high altitude Nariño coffees.

Producer Jeison Liban López grows coffee perched on a steep mountainside in Buesaco, in Colombia’s mountainous Nariño region. Jeison’s grandfather, Franco Héctor López, has reached the national finals of the Cup of Excellence several times, and we have previously purchased coffee from Jeison’s mother, Alba Diela López, at her farm El Mirador.

Råd til brygning

Vand er et af de mest væsentlige komponenter for at opnå en fremragende oplevelse med kaffen. Vi anbefaler at bruge mineralvand med en blød Total Dissolved Solids-værdi, ideelt liggende under 150ppm. Lær mere om vand og den effekt det har på smagen af kaffen her.

Giv kaffen hviletid Når kaffen får lov at hvile efter ristningen, opblødes de harske og skarpe smage, der endda kan betegnes som 'roast' karakterer, hvilket giver plads til at finere og lysere noter kan træde tydeligere frem.

Vi anbefaler at man lader kaffen hvile mindst 10 dage efter ristedatoen, og vi oplever ofte at kaffen når sit allerhøjeste niveau, især ved kaffer med høj densitet, efter 6 uger.

Brygning Vores ligefremme tilgang til kaffe bærer vi også med os over i brygningen. Vi anbefaler vores kaffer til alle bryggemetoder, uanset om det er immersion, perkolation eller espresso. Vi tror på at man ved at riste kaffen lyst, på sådan en måde at de iboende kvaliteter i råmaterialet fremvises.

El Estoraque

El Estoraque is a tiny 2 hectare plot where Jeison Liban López grows coffee perched on a steep mountainside in Buesaco, in Colombia’s mountainous Nariño region. We have come to appreciate coffees from Nariño over many years, for their dense sweetness and intense, concentrated flavours in the cup, with a high degree of clarity.  Incredibly high altitudes, often over 2000 masl, and excellent sun exposure mean sugar-rich, slow-matured coffee cherries, with ample fuel for fermentation and roasting to create complexity and intensity.

The López Family

Jeison is the youngest member of a well-known coffee growing family in the region. His grandfather, Franco Héctor López, for example, has reached the national finals of the Cup of Excellence several times, and is one of the leaders that helped put Buesaco on the speciality coffee map. We have also previously purchased coffee from Jeison’s mother, Alba Diela López, at her farm El Mirador. In 2023, Jeison himself became the youngest grower to reach the Cup of Excellence finals in Colombia’s history, a testament to the growth of a new generation in the county.

Jeison hopes to build on this success, finishing his education and diversifying his business on the farm, adding livestock, and several food crops, both in order to diversify his income, and to provide a biodiverse system in which coffee can thrive.

A careful process

This lot is a blend of the varietals grown on the farm, Caturra, Colombia and Castillo. The cherries are first placed in sealed containers for 24 hours, before de-pulping and a second sealed fermentation of 36 hours. The coffee is then thoroughly washed before drying on covered raised beds for 18 days. This careful fermentation translates the potential of these intensely sweet Nariño cherries into a bright and complex profile, with notes of tropical mango, while holding on to the crisp red berry acidity we’ve tasted from so many high altitude Nariño coffees.
