INTRO From Felipe Arcila's Finca Santa Mónica in Quindío — a Castillo co-fermented with lulo, a South American fruit known for its distinctive tart-tropical character. Pineapple and lulo lead, with a broader tropical sweetness running throughout. In the cup: pineapple, lulo, and tropical.
THE PRODUCER This lot comes from Felipe Arcila's Finca Santa Mónica in Quindío, Colombia, growing Castillo at 1,450–1,500 masl.
THE PROCESS This lot is Co-Fermented with Lulo and Washed — cherries ferment alongside lulo fruit before a washed finish, infusing the coffee with the fruit's distinctive tart-tropical character.
The lulo co-fermentation is the defining step — it's what builds the pineapple and lulo character that define this cup, layered onto Castillo's naturally clean washed base.
THE CUP Tropical and vivid — pineapple and lulo character up front, with a broader tropical sweetness running throughout.
