Grown in Quindío between 1750 and 2000 masl, this Caturra-based blend combines 60% Red Fruits processed decaf with 40% traditional decaf, creating a profile that balances clarity with depth.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe coffee undergoes an extended anaerobic fermentation for 120 hours, followed by a secondary 72-hour fermentation after depulping. During this stage, red wine yeast, dehydrated strawberries, and red fruit glucose are introduced, building layers of sweetness and aromatic complexity. Once the profile is developed, the coffee is decaffeinated using Colombia’s natural EA (ethyl acetate) sugarcane method, preserving structure while gently removing caffeine.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the cup, expect a rounded sweetness with notes of strawberry and sugarcane, supported by a soft milk chocolate base.
