For this lot, only the ripest cherries were harvested. The cherries are transported to our La Pradera processing center in grain pro bags or special tanks to preserve their freshness. Once cherries arrive in La Pradera, the cherries are floated in water tanks to remove any low-density beans or foreign materials. The water used in this stage is recycled for additional batches and, once no longer suitable for use, is filtered through a series of specialized tanks before being irrigated into vetiver grass beds and released as oxygen. This sustainable filtration system ensures that no contaminated water is discharged, maintaining our commitment to environmentally friendly practices.

Then, the cherries undergo a dry anaerobic fermentation process for 72 hours with the pulp on. During this stage, peaches and wine yeast are added to the fermentation tanks. The peaches transfer their distinct stone fruit like flavor to the coffee, while the wine yeast enhances the fermentation process, producing aromatic compounds that add complexity and depth. By incorporating peaches into the honey process, we create a coffee that tastes like summer in a cup—naturally sweet, vibrant, and irresistibly fragrant. As peaches break down during fermentation, they releaseesters and alcoholsthat interact with coffee mucilage, adding complexity.

Producer

Jairo Arcila is a 63 year old third generation coffee grower in Quindio, Colombia. He first worked as a mill manager for Colombia’s second largest exporter for over 40 years, and managed to earn a supplemental income alongside this full-time job.

Jairo started growing coffee 35 years ago when his father got very sick and could not manage his farm anymore. After a few years Jairo managed to purchase his own land and continues growing coffee until today.

He is married to Luz Helena Salazar, a now renowned coffee producer in her own right, they had two children together: Carlos and Felipe Arcila who also produce their own coffee lots and are the co-founders of Cofinet.

Farm

Finca Maracay and Santa Móinca sits at 1450 masl, and has been owned by the Arcila family since 1990.

Jairo purchased his first coffee farm, Finca La Esmeralda, in 1987 where he planted his first Caturra lot. Using his savings Jairo slowly managed to purchase five additional farms. First Villarazo, then Mazatlan, Santa Monica, Maracay and Buenos Aires. During harvest time he is able to provide much needed jobs to locals, which has a significant economic impact on their community.

With the help of his 2 sons, Jairo has improved picking, sorting, and the processing of his coffee and also now grows exotic varieties like Pink Bourbon, Papayo and Geisha across all his farms.
