Cooperativa de Caficultors de Anserma was founded in 1967. The cooperative was formed at the joint initiative of local coffee growers, reflecting their shared ambition to achieve better product quality and thus greater profits in the coffee industry.
The producer of this coffee is Hermel Alvarez, a 60-year-old farmer with a passion for coffee growing. He has 15 hectares of land, 13 of which are dedicated to coffee cultivation and the remaining two are native forest. Hermel grows geisha, bourbon, castillo and supremo varieties, 15% of which are geisha.
Hermel likes the simplicity of the processing process when it comes to quality variety and washed processing. First, he hand-picks the ripest cherries and filters out any defective or unripe pieces by soaking them in water. This ensures that at least 95% of his coffee cherries are top quality. The cherries are then crushed and subjected to anaerobic fermentation in sealed plastic tanks for 30 hours. Subsequent washing and drying in a parabolic drying system results in an ideal moisture content of 10-11%.
The geisha variety is one of the most respected and valued coffee varieties in the world. Originally from Ethiopia, it has gained its popularity and reputation through cultivation in Colombia and Panama. It grows at high altitudes and is considered one of the best varieties ever, thanks to its full-bodied, fruity and distinctive aroma. Its flavour is also very transparent, allowing you to discover different flavour nuances in every sip.
