The cup

Berries. Not the bright, acidic kind. More like a handful of mixed berries left in a warm bowl. Their sweetness concentrated. Almost jammy. Then lavender, which sounds unlikely until you taste it. Apricot on the way out.

Landrace varietals are old Ethiopian genetics. Ungrafted, unhybridised, less predictable than a modern cultivar and more interesting for it. Grown by Nestor Lasso at El Diviso, third generation on the farm. Forty hours of anaerobic fermentation. Thermal shock at sixty degrees. Twenty days under parabolic drying.

This is the same farm as our Geisha. A different conversation entirely.

The story

Nestor Lasso is twenty-four. His grandfather, José Uribe, planted the first trees on what is now El Diviso. The land runs to eighteen hectares in southern Colombia. Fifteen under coffee. Two left as forest.

Twelve varieties grow on the farm: Caturra, Castillo, Tabi, Pink Bourbon, Red Bourbon, Yellow Bourbon, Bourbon Ají, Caturra Chiroso, Geisha, Sidra, Java, Pacamara. Around eighty thousand trees in total.

In Nestor's own words: "One of our dreams is to share our specialty coffee with the entire world."
