INTRO
A Colombian espresso from Wilton Benitez, grown at the legendary Granja Paraiso 92 in Valle del Cauca. Here, Red Bourbon is worked with an experimental approach, notably a controlled washed fermentation that pushes aromatic expression while keeping a clean, precise balance in the cup. In espresso, the profile opens on a highly expressive violet, then reveals a cherry liqueur sensation, dense and lightly tart, before stretching into a deeper dark chocolate. In the cup: violet, cherry liqueur, and chocolate.
THE PRODUCER
Granja Paraiso 92 is run by Wilton Benitez, a farm using highly innovative systems — terraces, drip irrigation, shading, and laboratory nutrient tracking — aimed at producing genuinely unique coffee. The farm runs its own processing plant, microbiology lab, and quality lab, producing washed, natural, honey, and anaerobic coffees across both single and double fermentation, with bioreactors and specific microorganisms giving Wilton's coffees their distinct, standardised profiles.
THE PROCESS
This lot uses a Double Fermentation Washed process, layering controlled fermentation stages before washing to build aromatic complexity while preserving structural balance.
The controlled double fermentation is the defining step here — it's what pushes the aromatic expression into highly expressive violet, dense cherry liqueur, and deep chocolate, adding complexity without masking the variety and terroir's own character.
THE CUP
Floral, liquorous, and structured — a highly expressive violet opens the cup, giving way to a dense, lightly tart cherry liqueur sensation, before stretching into a deeper dark chocolate finish.
