Kindred Coffee
Wilton Benitez Tabi
This coffee comes from the region of Cauca in the south of Colombia. Cauca is relatively flat when looking at other Colombian growing regions, which means the coffee produced benefits from more consistent conditions. Wilton's exotic varietals are harvested at Granja Paraiso 92 & Finca La Macarena which are neighbouring farms. Generally, the team picks cherries with 95% ripeness. He then brings the cherries to his processing facility which is located at the highest point of the property with an incredible view of the Colombian massif. Here, the coffees are fermented, depulped, washed and dried in his state of the art facility. He also packs his coffee on site.
This Tabi was selected from Wilton’s varietal blocks and submitted to a 72-hour anaerobic in-cherry fermentation using carefully chosen yeast strains to push sweetness and flavour clarity. After fermentation the beans are dried slowly under controlled conditions to retain structure and highlight nuance.
