Their understanding of Colombian coffee shifted when they tasted their first Chiroso from this part of Antioquia: Urrao wasn't known for high-quality coffee, and most of what it produced moved into bulk commodity lots, so the quality was entirely unexpected. They continue to invest in the region and work with their exporting partner, The Coffee Quest, to develop the buying programme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChiroso is a new variety grown mainly in Antioquia, genetically identified as an Ethiopian landrace; where and how it came to be cultivated in Urrao remains unknown, but its cup quality is extraordinary.\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 further remove defects\u003cbr\u003e🌙 In-cherry hold — held in-cherry overnight\u003cbr\u003e🌱 De-pulping — cherries de-pulped\u003cbr\u003e⏱️ Dry fermentation — dry-fermented for 36 hours\u003cbr\u003e🚿 Washing — washed clean after fermentation\u003cbr\u003e☀️ Raised-bed drying — dried on raised beds until moisture reaches 10.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CUP\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBright and aromatic: tropical fruit leads, with soft florals and a sparkling acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlavour Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e🍍 Tropical Fruit 🌸 Soft Florals ✨ Sparkling Acidity\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SEY Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Filter \/ 250g \/ October 26th","offer_id":59166877352310,"sku":"SEY-DIAMANTE-DUBER-MEJIA-CHIROSO-WASHED-ENCORE-FIL-250G-OCT26","price":23.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0529\/9152\/5021\/files\/2026DuberMejia_ElDiamante_SurpriseEncore-Colombia_2560x.png-cropped.jpg?v=1793272605","url":"https:\/\/sigmacoffee.co.uk\/de\/products\/sey-coffee-duber-mejia-surprise-encore-washed-chiroso-colombia","provider":"Sigma Coffee UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
