This unique TINTO blend from Jerico, Colombia was crafted by blending four separately farmed coffees together. Two of these farms produce a standard washed process bean, fermenting for only 16 hours. The other two farms use a prolonged fermentation process of up to 36 hours to draw out pungent cherry fruit notes and subtle flavors. The end result is a balanced and clean cup with dark rich chocolate and bright red fruit and honey notes with a hint of red wine. This is a unique fermentation process that is rarely found in specialty coffee but is proudly roasted by Brew Love.
Jerico, Antioquia is a small and very Catholic town, home to Colombiaβs only canonized saint, Madre Laura (Mother Laura). The town maintains a rich coffee culture, but has limited access to resources. It is this tiny town south of MedellΓn, Colombia that produces some of the best tasting coffee in the world.
