Luz Ángela Rojas

ABOUT THE PRODUCER

Luz Ángela Rojas grew up surrounded by coffee on her family's farm, Chorro Alto, in Colombia's Huila region.

During a time of coffee crisis in the country, her parents encouraged her to leave for the city to find work. She did, but never stopped longing for home.

When Covid-19 and remote work gave her the excuse to return, she quickly reconnected with life on the farm and decided to stay to work alongside her parents.

Today, Chorro Alto is entirely family-run. Since returning, Ángela's vision has helped shape a quiet but meaningful evolution in how the farm grows and processes its coffee.

Advanced Processing

WASHED & THERMAL SHOCK

Every cherry is picked carefully by hand, ensuring only ripe fruit is selected. After harvesting, cherries are floated in water, a simple test that helps further remove anything underripe or overripe before it can affect the lot.

From there, the cherries are pulped and the fruit layer fully removed, before entering a warm wash at 45°C, a deliberate thermal shock that activates the fermentation process in a precise, controlled way. 

After three days of carefully monitored fermentation, a second wash at 5°C brings the process to a halt, locking in the flavour.

Advanced processing in this manner allows for a level of consistency and clarity that natural processing simply can't offer.
