From Farm to Cup: The Story of Los Guayacanes

Colombia Los Guayacanes is crafted by Evelio Lasso, a dedicated farmer from San Pedro de Cartago, Nariño. His 3-hectare farm, Los Guayacanes, sits at an impressive 1900 meters above sea level. Evelio, along with his family, is renowned for their commitment to growing unique coffee varieties and pioneering innovative processing techniques.

This Chiroso variety has its roots in Colombia’s coffee heritage, gaining prominence in the early 2000s and recently linked to Ethiopian landraces. Its tea-like, bright qualities, combined with fruit and floral accents, make it a standout. Evelio’s meticulous process involves vacuum fermentation in airtight barrels with degas valves for 40 hours, followed by washing and drying on indoor patios. This careful fermentation contributes to the coffee’s vibrant fruit flavors and distinctive yellowish coloring.
