12 ounces of whole seed coffee. If you do need your coffee ground, we are happy to do so. Just leave us a message in the comments at checkout.

About Carolina Ramirez:
In Unblended’s words:
Carolina Ramirez is one of our UVI stars. A lawyer, an endurance runner, AND an incredible specialty coffee farmer, she truly is an inspiring woman. The embodiment of the excitement we believe seeing young people working in coffee farms represents. Having studied law in Medellin, she decided to go back to Andes to live with her parents at their farm when the pandemic hit and fell in love with the specialty coffee world and its production chain. Nowadays, all of her coffees are designs made alongside her mother, and they both are in charge of selection and processing.
About the Varieties:
Castillo and Cenicafe 1 are both hybrid varieties developed by the Colombian Coffee Growers Federation (FNC). They are a cross between Caturra and a Timor Robusta. Both of these varieties have been researched and developed over many decades to create varieties in Colombia with a high quality cup potential, and also resistance to leaf rust and other disease.
About the Process:
This is a washed process resulting from mixing two different batches of coffee harvested with one day of difference. Once picked, the cherries are fermented for about 6 hours, then depulped and fermented for another 24 hours. A day after, the next batch is added and fermented for 14 more hours before washing it and drying it for about 2 to 3 weeks.
