Highlights
“Peñas Blancas is one of those projects that gets at something bigger than just great coffee. Founded by Néstor Lasso alongside fellow producer Jhon Vergara, the processing center was built with a clear mission: give small-scale farmers in Acevedo access to world-class infrastructure and processing know-how they wouldn't otherwise have. Many of the producers who bring their coffee here previously had no path to specialty markets. Through training, hands-on workshops, and centralized expert processing, Peñas Blancas changes that equation. This Caturra from Peñas Blancas is a great example of what the center is capable of. After hand-selection and flotation sorting, the cherries go through a 48–72 hour anaerobic pre-fermentation before heading to raised drying beds for up to 30 days of slow, carefully monitored drying.”
