Juicy Storm

Sourced directly from the Quebraditas Coffee Farm in the Huila region, this coffee exemplifies the extraordinary dedication of producer Edinson Argote, who combines an organic, environmentally friendly approach with cutting-edge processing techniques. The result is a cup profile unlike anything we’ve experienced before.

These SL-28 beans undergo a meticulous series of fermentations: starting with a natural drying phase, followed by a 96-hour oxidation in specialized bags, then rehydration and 120-hour anaerobic fermentation with microorganisms, and finally another 96 hours of drying. Grown at 1800m, this intensive process amplifies the beans’ natural fruit complexity, resulting in a coffee that is both vibrant and profoundly layered.

With each sip, you'll find intense berry flavors, strawberry, blueberry, black and red currant, layered with notes of nougat, marshmallow, cherry, and plum. Expect a bright, slightly tart acidity and a chewy, juicy body that is wild and complex. Some will love its winey, fruit-forward intensity and slight fermented edge, while others may find it too adventurous, but for those seeking bold, boundary-pushing flavors, this coffee is a must-try.

For a pour-over, start with 22g of coffee, grind at 3 on Fellow Ode 2 and a 1:16 ratio of coffee to water at 200°F (93°C). We recommend a total brew time of 3:00–3:30, divided into four pours, including a bloom and a larger second pour for sweetness. This approach highlights the coffee’s complex fruitiness and balanced sweetness. Also consider experimenting with an AeroPress, and prepare for an intense espresso experience, each method revealing new dimensions of its vivid profile.
