A juicy and complex Red & Pink Bourbon washed just like we love them. El Silencio Red is a part of Qima’s Micro Lots and Special Reserve Series and this is a classic profile that shines with tasting notes of blood orange, honey, raspberry and white flowers. El Silencio Red is a part of Qima’s Micro Lots and Special Reserve Series, which comprises unique coffees with a complex profile sourced from a single farmer or cooperative. It was grown on an altitude of around 1,700- 2,200 MASL in Palestina, a town within the Huila department, situated in southwestern Colombia. The washed process is based on a dual-phase fermentation and pulping processes that use water. Starting with fermentation, the recently harvested cherries undergo a 12- to 24-hour period of fermentation. This crucial phase enables the coffee beans to imbibe the delectable notes from the surrounding coffee skin. Following this fermentation stage, the cherries are transferred to a traditional pulper. Here, the pulper adeptly segregates the coffee beans from their outer skin. The beans are moved to patios or dryers to initiate slow drying.
