Practices - 4C - Sellos Verde This crop is harvested at very high altitudes ranging from 1500 - 1600 meters above sea level. Once the cherries are hand-picked they are fermented 24hrs before the outermost layer of the fruit is carefully removed. The beans are then transferred to vats and undergo a dry fermentation for 48-50hrs allowing the beans to take on a sweet and complex body. After removing the pulp and fruit, the beans are washed and naturally dried under specialized covered drying patios. From there they are sorted again by hand before they are ready for sale. Caturra has long been the crop of choice for specialty coffees produced in Colombia and every season’s harvest is highly anticipated and globally sought after. AVAILABLE IN: 1LB - 5LB - 10LB SHIPMENTS SHIPS SAME DAY BEFORE 2 PM EST Do you enjoy a true single-origin - a single lot? If you are thinking of a single estate - you’ve found the right spot! Not only will you have the chance to roast and enjoy what the farmers are drinking with this Single Estate Caturra produced by Cafe 1.810, but you’ll also have the chance to get your hands on the freshest, highest-quality green coffee within days. We say it’s about as close to a private reserve without living on the farm. Caturra is a wonderfully fresh and fruitful varietal of Bourbon lineage. This varietal is grown in the nutrient-rich volcanic soils of Cafe 1.810. Owner, Ana Lucia Urbano Peña, proudly operates a biodiverse 32-hectare farm with 8-hectares dedicated to producing some of the finest varietals of Caturra, Castillo Tambo, and Colombia. It is due to their ecological processes, the decent work offered to their workers, and their exceptional quality that Cafe 1.810 holds five prestigious certifications recognized worldwide. Playing a major role in the female-led initiative Chapoleras Laboyanas, owner and operator of Cafe 1.810, Ana Lucia Urbano Peña has been dedicated to growing her family business and the Cafe 1.810 brand over the past 20 years into a sustainable model for future female coffee producers and workers. As a result, Ana has been recognized as one of the top female producers of coffee from Colombia. Female owners, farmers, and cultivators are far more marginalized when it comes to ownership, representation and coffee production in Colombia. Women like Ana are changing that narrative and we are happy to provide an avenue for encouraging future growth for women in her industry and generations to come. Traceability is very important to us.
