Adriana Gonzalez

$30.25
Notes of Bergamot, Pomegranate, Peach
In 2020, we were introduced to Divino Niño producer Adriana Gonzalez when she was awarded the top overall prize in that year's ‘Copa Suaceña’ competition - a now expanded cupping competition called the ‘Copa de Oro’, which highlights some of the most skilled coffee producers in Huila, Colombia. At the following year’s competition, Adriana surprised the judging panel with a repeat of her grand champion success, firmly establishing her reputation as one of the finest producers in Suaza. That year, along with her winning lot, we were able to purchase an additional separation from her harvest, which we earmarked for long-term freezer preservation upon its arrival in Lancaster. Now some 5 years later, we’re excited to finally share this exceptional washed pink bourbon selection as a renewed opportunity to celebrate this beloved producer. Expect an abundance of tangy red fruit flavors including pomegranate and cranberry, accompanied by a pungent bergamot florality, lime peel, and ripe peach in the finish.

Adriana Gonzalez 2021

After achieving consecutive ‘grand champion’ rankings, Adriana Gonzalez Adriana and her husband, Francisco, were early adopters of a unique processing approach, sometimes referred to as ’salmuera’, that has since become more commonly employed by other producers in southern Huila. This extra step involves soaking their freshly harvested pink bourbon cherries in a 2% saltwater solution for 24 hours before the coffee is pulped. The purpose of this saltwater or ‘salmuera' soak is to reduce the presence of bacteria that might contribute to off-flavors, while creating a friendly environment for desirable (salt-tolerant) bacteria of the Lactobacillus genus. The result is the exceptionally clean, sweet, and vibrant qualities that have defined our favorite coffees from Adriana in years past.
