The farm benefits from excellent environmental conditions, including over 8 hours of daylight and annual rainfall between 1800-2000 mm, supporting diverse coffee varieties and producing unique sensory profiles.\u003cbr\u003ePalestina is located in the southern part of Huila, one of the four departments that make up Colombia’s new coffee-producing axis. The mountains of Palestina offer a unique microclimate that supports the growth and development of many varietals. As a result, varieties such as Pink Bourbon, Java, Chiroso, Gesha, Caturra, Colombia, Castillo, can also be found, contributing to a diverse and expanding coffee landscape.\u003cbr\u003eLocal coffee growers are known for their deep knowledge and expertise in cultivating and caring for each coffee plant all the way to harvest, ensuring beans of consistently high quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Process:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePurple Caturra was chosen for its versatility and high Brix concentration (the concentration of dissolved sucrose), which fosters optimal conditions for microorganisms like Lactobacillus and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. After cultivating these microorganisms separately,  tropical fruit such as pineapple, passion fruit, orange, and mango were added to enhance the coffee’s flavor. An 80-liter solution is prepared in a 200-liter container, achieving the same Brix levels as the coffee. This mother culture undergoes 190 hours of fermentation to reach the appropriate pH and Brix. Once harvested, Brix levels are measured, impurities are removed, and the coffee is pulped and placed in sealed 200-liter cans with the fruit solution. The de-pulped coffee then ferments for an additional 150 hours, ensuring Brix stays above 6 and pH above 4. This process highlights the fruit notes without overpowering the coffee's natural flavor, maintaining coffee as the main foundation of the preparation.\u003cbr\u003eAfter thorough washing, the coffee is dried on parabolic beds for 10-15 days. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bohee Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"200g \/ whole bean","offer_id":57350472237439,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g \/ espresso","offer_id":57350472270207,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g \/ stovetop","offer_id":57350472302975,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g \/ filter","offer_id":57350472335743,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g \/ cafetiere","offer_id":57350472368511,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g \/ green beans","offer_id":57350472401279,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"200g \/ AeroPress","offer_id":57350472434047,"sku":null,"price":18.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ whole bean","offer_id":57350472466815,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ espresso","offer_id":57350472499583,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ stovetop","offer_id":57350472532351,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ filter","offer_id":57350472565119,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ cafetiere","offer_id":57350472597887,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ green beans","offer_id":57350472630655,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ AeroPress","offer_id":57350472663423,"sku":null,"price":75.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/4508\/9584\/files\/Untitled-11_1.png?v=1777980878","url":"https:\/\/www.bohee.coffee\/products\/columbia-finca-monte-blanco","provider":"Bohee Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
