INTRO

A washed Chiroso from Jorge Rojas that delivers more sweetness than the process usually promises. Forest fruits gelato, florals, and black tea — clean and precise, with a richness that feels earned rather than added.

THE PRODUCER

Jorge Rojas grows Chiroso at Finca El Proceso in Planadas, Tolima, at 2,050 MASL — high enough to slow cherry development and build the concentrated sweetness that makes this lot stand out for a washed coffee.

THE PROCESS

After each harvest day, cherries were transported down to Jorge's La Roca processing plant in Planadas, where they were floated to remove defects, pulped, and left to rest overnight. Washed the following morning, then dried for fifteen days in marquesinas.

THE CUP

Everything a washed Chiroso should be and then some — structured and floral, with a gelato-like fruit sweetness that lingers long past the last sip.

About this variety

Coffees reported as Chiroso are often associated with an aromatic, tea-like and bright cup. Florals, citrus and stone fruit are useful reference points in carefully produced lots.

Why this one is different
  • Colombia
  • Tolima
  • 2050 masl
  • Washed

Colombian Chiroso is often bright and aromatic, bringing white flowers, citrus, red fruit and a tea-like or gently herbal finish. The reviewed washed lots from high elevations are especially clear and lively, while natural processing can make the fruit rounder and more expressive. Look to the listed process for the clearest clue to this bag.

Washed processing can make acidity and variety character easier to read, although fermentation and drying choices still matter.

A little background

Chiroso gained attention through producers around Urrao in Antioquia and is now seen in other Colombian regions. The reviewed coffees still lean strongly towards high-grown, carefully washed lots, where florals and vivid fruit stay sharply defined.

Identification note Chiroso is a Colombian producer name with strong genetic evidence linking tested material to Ethiopian landraces. Individual farm plantings are not assumed to be genetically identical unless their traceability confirms it.

Classification Colombian regional name

Technical lineage Published genetic research places tested Chiroso in an Ethiopian-only landrace cluster, rather than supporting the older idea that it was simply a Caturra mutation.
