FARM 

Produced in Fresno Tolima in Colombia, El Vergel Estates is managed by the Bayter brothers and their mother Marta. This project began in 1995 based on the conventional Colombian coffee and avocado production growth for over 15 years. El Vergel became known as one the largest producers in their region, leading them to provide economic growth to hundreds of employees who worked with the farm. The Bayter brothers also processed and exported this coffee directly which allows them to provide fair pay to the farm.

PROCESS

An important factor that contributes to the incredible flavors found in this coffee is its process. Based on the low density and the large size of the Pacamara varietal, the Bayter brothers opted for a 48 hour anaerobic fermentation before drying beans for 15 to 18 days. The coffee was then moved into GrainPro Hermetic bags in a humidity controlled vault on the El Vergel Estates for a month and a half.
