About the coffee
A delight both with or without milk, this coffee portrays an easygoing pomelo acidity and hints of caramel in black, and notes of vanilla ice cream with subtle white chocolate sweetness in white — this is the result of intentional Washed processing. Floaters are removed prior to being pulped to produce clean, consistent cup profiles which represent the terroir of the farm. The pulped coffee is then fermented in anaerobic environment for 30-45 hours, before being dried on raised beds in a parabolic dryer for approximately 25 days to reach optimal humidity.

Rodrigo Sanchez and Claudia Samboni have already established themselves as skilled and innovative producers through their years of experience managing farms like Monteblanco, La Loma and Las Nubes. Las Veraneras marks their most expansive project yet, with plans to have more than 20 different varieties — including Sudan Rume, Mokka, Purple Caturra, Pacamara, Gesha, Bourbon and more.
