Colombia La Loma X.o Rum Barrel Washed

Summary

Colombia La Loma X.O Rum Barrel Washed is a specialty coffee from the La Loma farm in Huila, Colombia, managed by producer Rodrigo Sánchez Valencia. The coffee uses Caturra and Bourbon varieties grown at 1,650m altitude. It undergoes a unique process involving fermentation with a rum-based culture, followed by extended sealed fermentation, and additional aging in oak barrels previously used for rum maturation. The roast is light, and the cup profile features whisky, dark cherry, and vanilla notes with a rich, dessert-like character. The farm serves as an experimental lab for variety, fermentation, drying, and processing research.
