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.
-
01Washed ProcessCherry is pulped within hours of picking, fermented under water to remove the mucilage, then washed clean and dried slowly on raised beds. The cleanest, most classical Colombian approach — and the one that lets variety and altitude speak loudest.
-
02Slow DriedBeans dry across 10–14 days under shade, turned regularly. The slower the dry, the more stable the cup.
-
03Daily-Drinker RoastMedium roast — built for balance. Equal at home in filter, espresso or milk drinks.
