Buena Vista "Panela Bacana"

It might be cliché, but the Buena Vista Panela Bacana lot is exactly what we'd expect for the holidays: funky stone fruit, a velvet-like mouthfeel, and warm spice envelope the cup. 

The owners of Finca Buena Vista: Edgar Motta and Susan Mences and are a married couple, working partners, and outstanding, innovative coffee growers known in San Agustin.
Their dedication and passion for coffee are visible in their high-quality coffee.

The harvesting of the fruit in this lot was a highly selective process, with only ripe coffee cherries being picked. This was followed by "balseo", a method of fruit selection based on density, where the cherries that float are discarded. The coffee was then carefully spread across drying beds, ensuring no bean was left on top of another. These beds are well ventilated and measures are taken to prevent insect infestation. The coffee is turned six to seven times a day, with a drying time of 18 to 25 days.
