Sidra

For Coffee Week Berlin, we are presenting a special highlight: Sidra – our first coffee of this extraordinary variety. It comes from farmer Edinson Ardote at Finca Quebraditas in Huila, Colombia. Only a very small number of bags were produced, making it a real rarity.

Process
Selective hand harvesting of the ripest cherries, followed by 48 hours of anaerobic fermentation in sealed tanks to develop maximum complexity. This is followed by the innovative Thermal Shock Washed process, in which the beans are treated with warm and cold water to preserve the vibrant flavors.

Flavor profile
In the cup, Sidra displays an elegant, multi-layered flavor: delicate notes of elderflower, ripe mango, and floral aromas, followed by an intense aroma of peach and elderflower after infusion. This is complemented by a clear, lively acidity, a creamy texture, and a long, elegant finish. The result is a coffee that uniquely combines floral, fruity, sweet, and refined characteristics.

Edinson Argote is a fermentation wizard. He works like a biochemist with his own fermentation lab. After years on top farms in Cauca, he returned to Huila to build his own line. With Angela’s expertise in agricultural economics, he ensures consistent quality and complete traceability. Their coffees are unique and reproducible, with each batch precisely documented.

The processing begins with selective harvesting: only ripe cherries are picked by hand to maximize sweetness and fruitiness. The harvest is then fermented under anaerobic conditions for 48 hours to bring out the aromas in a particularly clear and intense way. This is followed by the “thermal shock washed” process, in which the beans are treated with alternating hot and cold water to stop fermentation and preserve the fruit aromas. During pulping and washing, the skin and fruit are removed and the beans are cleaned further, resulting in a more aromatic product than conventional washed coffees. Finally, the beans are slowly dried in the shade with ventilation to ensure long-term quality and stability.
