This coffee represents the sweetness that comes when a mother and daughter work together. Carolina and her mom Maria Victoria are careful by nature and their coffee is a result of the attention to detail they pour into each step of the process. This Caturra washed is perfectly picked, fermented, washed and selected. A fruity cup full of strawberries and jasmine with a fresh thyme aftertaste. Harvested in Andes, Antioquia, a vast coffee region in Colombia, this delicious cup of coffee is obtained after mixing two different batches of coffee harvested with one day of difference. Once picked, the cherries are fermented for about 9 hours, then depulped and fermented for another 27 hours. A day after, the next batch is added and fermented for 14 more hours before washing it and drying it for about 2 to 3 weeks.

Carolina Ramirez is one of our UVI stars. A lawyer, an endurance runner, AND an incredible specialty coffee farmer, she truly is an inspiring woman. The embodiment of the excitement we believe seeing young people working in coffee farms represents. Having studied law in Medellin, she decided to go back to Andes to live with her parents at their farm when the pandemic hit and fell in love with the specialty coffee world and its production chain. Nowadays, all of her coffees are designs made alongside her mother, and they both are in charge of selection and processing.
