Edilma Piedrahita is the leader of Los Guacharos – our favourite producer group in Colombia, and the source of many of our most treasured profiles. Edilma is a great leader. Her effusive energy has buoyed us many times in the back of pickup trucks on long drives and we love her for her full-hearted commitment to her community. Edilma shares our belief that steps towards sustainable production are essential for the future of coffee. We were super happy to be able to visit with Edilma and the Guacharos producers in June and also in September this year. And happier still to be able to undertake some fermentation experiments with Edilma especially.

This pink borbon lot is a traditional washed process – the cherries are floated to remove over and under ripes, then depulped prior to a 42 hour fermentation in tanks, without water.
