The farm is situated a thirty minute walk from the small town of San Antonio, where the couple also own a general store. Using the earnings generated by their shop, María Rosa and Alfonso saved the money needed to buy their two-hectare farm some twenty years ago. Since then, Alfonso has remained in charge of the store, while María Rosa manages Los Nogales.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring the harvest, María Rosa hikes up the mountain that leads to the family’s estate well before dawn, to check in on the crew of 15 or so pickers that assists the family every year and to organise the schedule for the day’s work. She’s deeply respected by everyone she works with, as she’s just as likely to spend the morning preparing breakfast for her team and family, as she is to pick up a basket to help with the hand-selecting of coffee cherry. No step of her crop’s production goes unchecked, as she also carefully oversees its processing and drying.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDespite the small size of the farm, María Rosa had initially planted three different varieties on their land: Caturra, Typica, and Tabi. A few years ago, she made the tough decision to uproot her existing trees and renovate her farm, planting only Pink Bourbon, a variety with direct links to Ethiopia known for producing a floral and elegant cup. Since then, every lot we have sourced from Los Nogales is 100% Pink Bourbon. The high elevation of their farm (some 2,000 metres above sea level) makes it possible to continue growing this more disease-vulnerable variety, despite the dangers of coffee leaf rust. It also means the coffee cherries ripen more slowly, allowing a higher concentration of sugars to develop, resulting in a sweet and complex cup. The coffee trees at Los Nogales are fertilised up to three times a year depending on the state and quantity of coffee on the tree, and seeds for new trees are collected and germinated on the farm itself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__group\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"#\" class=\"accordion__label\"\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProcessing\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion__text\"\u003eThe coffee was processed using the washed method at the farm’s ‘micro-beneficio’ (mill). Fresh cherries were pulped using a small manual or electric pulper and then placed into a fermentation tank without water, where it was left for 36 hours and then washed using clean water from nearby rivers and streams.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe coffee was then carefully dried (over 10–18 days) on raised beds and concrete patio, which are covered by a greenhouse-style canopy that acts to protect the coffee from the rain and prevent condensation dripping back onto the drying beans. The greenhouses are constructed out of plastic sheets and have adjustable walls to help with airflow, and temperature control to ensure the coffee can dry slowly and evenly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cata Coffee","offers":[{"title":"250g \/ Whole Beans","offer_id":46658111635626,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Whole Beans","offer_id":46658111668394,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Whole Beans","offer_id":46658111701162,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Espresso","offer_id":46658111733930,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Stovetop","offer_id":46658111766698,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Aeropress","offer_id":46658111799466,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Pour Over - CAFEC Flower Dripper\/V60","offer_id":46658111832234,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Automatic Drip Coffee Maker","offer_id":46658111865002,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Kalita Wave\/Clever Dripper\/Chemex","offer_id":46658111897770,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ French Press","offer_id":46658111930538,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"250g \/ Cold Brew","offer_id":46658111963306,"sku":null,"price":32.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Espresso","offer_id":46658111996074,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Stovetop","offer_id":46658112028842,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Aeropress","offer_id":46658112061610,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Pour Over - CAFEC Flower Dripper\/V60","offer_id":46658112094378,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Automatic Drip Coffee Maker","offer_id":46658112127146,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Kalita Wave\/Clever Dripper\/Chemex","offer_id":46658112159914,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ French Press","offer_id":46658112192682,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"500g \/ Cold Brew","offer_id":46658112225450,"sku":null,"price":56.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Espresso","offer_id":46658112258218,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Stovetop","offer_id":46658112290986,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Aeropress","offer_id":46658112323754,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Pour Over - CAFEC Flower Dripper\/V60","offer_id":46658112356522,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Automatic Drip Coffee Maker","offer_id":46658112389290,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Kalita Wave\/Clever Dripper\/Chemex","offer_id":46658112422058,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ French Press","offer_id":46658112454826,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1kg \/ Cold Brew","offer_id":46658112487594,"sku":null,"price":92.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0518\/2491\/8698\/files\/Razzmic_Berry_-_Web_SC_NR_Los_Nogales_PB_-_Front.png?v=1779973161","url":"https:\/\/catacoffee.com\/products\/colombia-los-nogales-pink-bourbon","provider":"Cata Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
