His farm, El Tambo, is one of the highest in the area at 2,200 masl and spans 33 hectares (about 81 acres), with 5 hectares dedicated to coffee. Daniel primarily grows Chiroso, with a small garden of Gesha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChiroso is a new variety grown primarily in Antioquia, only recently gaining attention, and beginning to spread because of its cup quality potential. It has been genetically identified as an Ethiopian Landrace, though nothing more specific is known, and how it came to be cultivated in this region remains a mystery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE PROCESS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Washed process for this lot involves:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e🍒 Hand-picking — cherries harvested at peak ripeness\u003cbr\u003e💧 Floating — floated to remove defects\u003cbr\u003e🌱 Same-day de-pulping — de-pulped on the day of harvest\u003cbr\u003e⏱️ Underwater fermentation — fermented underwater for 6 days\u003cbr\u003e☀️ Raised-bed drying — dried on raised beds until moisture reaches roughly 10%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe six-day underwater fermentation is the defining step.
