Juicy Grape – Colombia | San Adolfo, Huila

12oz (340g)

Varieties: Caturra, Castillo, Colombia

Producer: Brayan Alvear

Processing: Anaerobic Co-Fermentation w/ Dehydrated Grape

Elevation: 1700–1900m

This lot from Brayan Alvear showcases precise, controlled co-fermentation at the Ancla facility in Huila. Cherries undergo 24h pre-fermentation in bags, 24h in cherry, then are depulped and fermented anaerobically for 5 days with dehydrated grapes. Mechanical drying over 10 days and a 5-day stabilization yield a dense, fruit-saturated cup with notes of red grape, caramel, brown sugar, and brown spice. A standout example of innovation in Colombian processing.
