What makes this coffee so special?
Huila, Colombia, is home to some of the most prized coffees in the world and for very good reason. Not only is the coffee education of the farmers incredibly high, but the terroir is perfectly suited to produce high-quality coffees just like this Linarco Rodriguez filter.
Linarco Rodriguez is something of a celebrity in Huila and his hometown Palestina. Growing up amongst a family entwined in the coffee industry, he learnt all the tricks & trades of production and is now producing exceptional coffee himself.
The family farm is split among the 7 siblings, all having their own cultivated area of coffee with a communal wet mill and drying facility for processing. Only the highest quality ripe cherries are harvested and then placed in flotation tanks to remove the dry beans, leaves and impurities. The cherries are then pulped and left in tanks for 48 hours with open fermentation. After washing, the coffee is transferred to dryers for 25 days, to allow for the flavour to develop that bit further.
This filter coffee is an excellent example of a washed pink bourbon, with huge amounts of flavour, candy floss-like sweetness and a grapefruit acidity in the cup, don’t miss out on this exquisite brew.
How to brew
If you're using a V60, we reccomend 30g with 500ml of water.
