Fernando Cordero cultivates 10 hectares of land with his family on his farm El Alumbre de Tarrazu. One of his passions is experimenting with modern processing methods - for which he has found the perfect partner in Luis Campos. The latter runs the local micro mill Cordillera de Fuego, where he has made a name for himself as one of the pioneers in new ways of processing coffee.
For this lot, the coffee cherries are hermetically sealed in barrels and fermented anaerobically for 2-3 days in a cool place. They are then laid out on patios to dry for 2-3 weeks until they have reached the optimum moisture content.
