Embrace the Flavours of November: Featured Coffees from Finca Los Nogales
As November rolls in, bringing with it the sunlit warmth of early summer days and the excitement of gatherings with friends and family, we're excited to highlight two extraordinary coffees from Finca Los Nogales in Bruselas, Colombia. Crafted with passion by the Hernandez siblings—Oscar, Angie, and Olga—these coffees not only promise exceptional flavours but also tell a remarkable story of resilience, innovation, and family legacy.
Discover Los Nogales Decaf: A flavourful experience without the caffeine
Imagine savouring a cup of coffee that awakens your senses without the caffeine jitters. Our Los Nogales Decaf offers just that—a delightful journey through tasting notes of jasmine, red apple, vanilla, and warming spices. This isn’t just any decaf; it’s a celebration of what decaffeinated coffee can truly be.
A Family Legacy
The story of Finca Los Nogales is deeply intertwined with family. After the tragic loss of their father, Ricaurte Hernandez, in 2013, his children took the helm of the family farm. Driven by a commitment to quality and sustainability, they’ve continued to produce outstanding coffee, earning accolades including the prestigious Colombian Cup of Excellence in 2005.
The Art of Decaffeination
Decaffeination often carries a reputation for compromising flavor, but not here. The Los Nogales Decaf undergoes a meticulous 90-hour fermentation process with mossto, followed by a natural decaffeination method using a solvent derived from its own coffee pulp. The result? A clean, vibrant cup that captures the original essence of the coffee, proving that you don’t have to sacrifice flavor for a decaf option.
Award-Winning Quality
The excellence of Los Nogales Decaf was highlighted when Weihong Zhang won the 2024 US Brewer’s Cup using this very coffee. This remarkable achievement in a competition typically dominated by caffeinated entries showcases the complex and rich flavours that this decaf coffee can deliver.
Experience the vibrancy of Los Nogales Thermal Shock Extended Washed Fermentation
If you're seeking a coffee that bursts with life and flavour, look no further than the Los Nogales Thermal Shock Extended Washed Fermentation. With vibrant tasting notes of watermelon, passionfruit, and mixed berries, this coffee is a fruity delight that dances on your palatte, leaving a smooth, sweet finish.
Innovative Techniques at Finca Los Nogales
What makes this coffee so special? It all starts with an innovative processing method known as Thermal Shock Extended Washed Fermentation. This unique technique involves alternating the cherries between hot and cold water, enhancing flavour retention and complexity. After undergoing 120 hours of fermentation with mossto and yeast, the coffee is sun-dried on raised beds for 21 days, locking in those vibrant tropical flavours.
The Yellow Colombia Varietal
The Yellow Colombia varietal, a cross between Typica and Caturra, thrives at the high altitudes of Finca Los Nogales. Known for its lush fruit notes and velvety mouthfeel, this varietal brings forth an exciting mix of tropical and berry flavors with a honey-like sweetness. Each sip is a testament to the dedication and skill of the Hernandez family.
Why You Should Try These Coffees
Both of these exceptional coffees are more than just beverages; they represent a commitment to quality and community. By choosing Los Nogales, you’re not just enjoying a delicious cup of coffee; you’re supporting a family legacy that prioritizes sustainability and innovation.
