Alfredo Ocampo, Finca Piamonte.
This coffee comes from a single farm in Versalles, Valle del Cauca — Finca Piamonte, owned and worked by Alfredo Ocampo. The farm sits at 1,700–1,800m in the Colombian Andes, where slow ripening and cool mountain nights concentrate sugars in the cherry.
Alfredo and his team pick by hand, pulp the same day, and process each lot under the protocol that flatters it — washed, semi-washed, controlled or experimental fermentation. Every bag we sell traces back to his lots, his decisions, and the soil under his feet.
How this coffee gets its flavour.
-
01Controlled FermentationCherry rests in sealed tanks under monitored temperature for a defined window — long enough to develop fruit clarity and structure, short enough to keep the cup clean and repeatable. The disciplined middle ground.
-
02Selectively PickedPickers walk each row by ripeness, returning to the same tree multiple times across the season. Only fully ripe cherry enters the fermentation tank.

03Small-Batch RoastedLight to medium — calibrated to highlight the variety and process work that built the cup. Roasted to order in our UK roastery.
Red fruit in every pour.
Controlled fermentation, fruit-forward. Brew at 91–92°C with 15g per 250ml cup, medium grind, 3 minutes. Filter flatters the red fruit; espresso concentrates the chocolate.
