Origin: Caldas, Colombia | Producer: Villamaria Project | Variety: Castilla & Colombia | Process: Natural | Altitude: 2000 MASL | Harvest: 2025
Sourced through Raw Material’s “Villamaria” Project this natural lot comes from the Corozal, which translates to “Cold Lands”. The Corozal is the highest point in Villamaria, with some farms sitting over 2000 meters above sea level. The combination of cold weather and altitude make for some really interesting cup profiles in the coffee produced here.
Villamaría is a municipality in the department of Caldas, Colombia, a region rich in water and natural resources. Located just a few kilometres from the city of Manizales, the area is shaped by the Chinchiná River, which flows through the surrounding landscape.
The Jamaica drying station is situated in Chinchiná, Caldas, at an altitude of 1,300 metres above sea level. The station works with between 30 and 50 coffee producing families from higher elevation farms in the nearby Villarazo region. Sitting approximately 500 metres lower than the producers it serves, Jamaica benefits from a warmer climate that is particularly well suited to processing honey and natural coffees.
The station specialises in the production of washed, honey, and natural lots. Equipped with Nuna dehydrators and mechanical drying systems, the team is able to carefully control temperature and humidity throughout the drying process, ensuring greater consistency and quality, particularly for honey and natural coffees.
The results in the cup are striking with a crisp red apple acidity and deep molasses like sweetness.
