Las Perlitas
Our third harvest working with the Las Perlitas program from Coffee Quest, this is a sweet and juicy field blend from Las Perlitas. Las Perlitas means “Little Pearls” and throughout the harvest, it’s quite common that small-holders in Colombia produce lots that aren’t large enough to be exported on their own. However, the quality is often just as good (or better) than samples received from larger lots. As such, they are combined and processed to create this special lot.

We taste juicy blackberries, strawberry candy and bright citrus. This coffee also has a pear like acidity when it cools and is jammy and sweet.

About The Producer
Las Perlitas means “Little Pearls” and throughout the harvest, it’s quite common that small-holders in Colombia produce lots that aren’t large enough to be exported on their own. However, the quality is often just as good (or better) than samples received from larger lots. As such, they are combined and processed to create this special lot.
Processing
Coffees are processed by what is called, "Cochadas", a process where every 4-7 days a new picking is depulped into the days before, and homogenized, and on the final day the coffee is washed and prepared for drying. The majority of the Las Perlitas lot is fermented in water, creating a cleaner profile without excess funk or undesired attributes vs other methods of fermentation.
