Established in June 2022 as processing facility, Los Patios is more than just a hub—it's a testament to the commitment to the entire coffee supply chain. Collaborating with local producers and implementing strategic initiatives, Los Patios has become a beacon of innovation.
Developed by The Coffee Quest’s Research & Development team, this lot aims to elevate Castillo's traditional and robust profile, complementing it with a punch of red fruits co-fermentation.
De-pulped cherries are bought from various producers in the region, whose farms range from 1,600 - 1,900 m.a.s.l and are an average of 3 Ha in size. Before delivering the wet parchment to Los Patios, these producers handle the first stage of the processing with 12 hour aerobic fermentation in cherry.
Once at Los Patios, red fruit concentrate is added to fermentation thanks , along with their proprietary solution to the de-pulped coffee. This fermentation and absorption phase lasts for 2 days until the coffee is drained and placed to dry at Los Patios for between 12 - 16 days, where it is monitored and rotated constantly to ensure an even drying.
