We just can’t get enough of these coffees from Finca El Paraíso! The first anaerobic coffee we ever purchased came from this farm back in 2019, but we didn’t see their coffees again until 2025. Here we are in 2026 with the last of the five different coffees we purchased from them this year: a washed Caturra Chiroso (or simply Chiroso). This coffee is really exceptional as the flavor is quite intense yet it has a softness to the profile as well, so it isn’t overpowering. We taste tropical fruits like mango, big time acid (think grapefruit, lemon, and lime), plus a creamy soft peach note and some hints of flowers. As is always the case with coffees from this farm, it is a fantastic example of how carefully controlled, scientific processing can completely transform the flavor profile of a coffee for the better. Enjoy!
