Los Campeones [2021]

We’re pretty thrilled for our pals, Diego Campos and Derlin Roa, taking the plunge into starting their own family and coffee farm. Amidst it all, they happen to be the current Colombian Barista and AeroPress Champions! That is serious coffee chops right there. After many years working across the entire supply chain, they understand the importance of quality and relationships as they establish Diamante Coffee Farm. We’re stoked for Commonfolk to be one of their first roaster partners and to share their excellent work with our part of the world. Here’s our second washed micro lot release for this first season. Only select ripe cherries from their Castillo varietal trees were floated before numerous fermentations and washing. First, the whole coffee cherry was fermented for 36 hours. It was then pulped before a secondary 36 hour parchment fermentation. A final 12 hour soak in water and this parchment was laid out to dry for 15 days. Look for notes of lime and dates with a ruby grapefruit acidity. We’re proud to be working directly with the Roa Campos family, importing ourselves with special thanks to Osito for their quality export services.
