Expect notes of Fermented Plum, Caramel, Shortbread

Carbon negative coffee



Our first visit to Leonid Ramirez's Finca La Cortina de Hierro last year was quite an adventure. The journey began with a drive to Génova, 50 km south of Armenia. From there, we hopped into a classic Ford Willy Army Jeep for the scenic, 1800-meter ascent to the farm. Leonid, his two dogs, and his niece and nephew (who are learning the art of specialty coffee processing from him) greeted us warmly. After a delicious coffee brewed by Leonid himself, he gave us a tour of his farm and processing facilities. His unique processing method, involving three stages of anaerobic and carbonic maceration fermentation over several weeks, was particularly fascinating. This method is applied to all his lots, giving them a distinctive flavour found only at Finca La Cortina de Hierro.

This extended natural process coffee offers notes of sweet fermented plum, caramel, and shortbread biscuit, making it a delicious and versatile coffee to enjoy any time of day.

Evelyn ★★★★★

The dried fruit and berry notes from this EF2 natural process are unreal – I've brewed it three ways and it stays sweet and balanced every time. At 1,800–1,950 masl, the body feels dense but not heavy, which is exactly what I look for in a Colombian. It's my first coffee from Quindio and the clarit

William ★★★★★

The EF2 natural process really brings out a sweetness I wasn't expecting from a Colombia variety—it's almost like dried fruit, but clean. Brewed it in my V60 and the clarity at 1,900 masl is fantastic.

Charlotte ★★★★★

First time trying an EF2 natural process from Quindío and wow, the fruitiness is unmistakable — clean, bright, and surprisingly sweet for a higher-altitude bean at 1,800-1,950 masl. Brewed a pour-over this morning and the finish lingered way longer than I expected. Definitely grabbing another bag of
