Flavor profile
Hacienda El Encanto Estate green coffee offers a wide spectrum of aromas, depending on the roast: red fruits, cherry, cocoa, citrus, chocolate, and roasted notes. The exceptional blend of Caturra, Castillo, and Tabi varieties allows you to create both filter roasts and strong espresso profiles.
Origin & Cultivation
This green coffee comes from the renowned Colombian region of Antioquia, whose altitude of 1,200 to 2,000 meters creates ideal conditions for complex flavor profiles. Hacienda El Encanto utilizes steep slopes, volcanic soils, and a diverse microclimate – perfect prerequisites for excellent specialty coffee.
Sustainability & Permaculture
The farm follows a consistently ecological approach:
- Establishing a permaculture system to promote natural cycles
- Mixed cropping with fruit, herbs and shade trees
- No synthetic fertilizers & pesticides
- Soil conservation through composting and minimal cultivation
- Promoting biodiversity through species-rich planting
These measures not only ensure long-term yields, but also a particularly clean, natural raw bean.
processing
- Hand-picked harvest of only ripe cherries
- Fully Washed (washed preparation)
- Careful fermentation & drying
- Water-saving process management despite a water-rich region
The washed processing method results in a clear, precise cup character with focused aromas – ideal for profile roasts.
social commitment
Since 2021, Mondo del Caffè, together with the farm, has supported the Santa Rosa de Lima shelter – a project to protect vulnerable girls under 18. It offers safe accommodation, psychological support, and educational opportunities for a better future.
By purchasing this green coffee, you are not only supporting organic farming, but also sustainable social development in Colombia.
