Stephen lives and works out of Colombia and has a huge passion for special high-quality coffees and processes. At Coffee Quest they work directly with producers, and have their own mill in Antioquia to have further control over the quality the export!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDuring my time with Coffee Quest we took a quick rip from Medellín to Urrao, the home of one of the finest varietals, Chiroso! \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eWhen done correctly, Chiroso is an incredibly diverse coffee that shows so nicely as a filtered coffee. Urrao is an absolutely beautiful town, surrounded by lush green rolling hills filled with roaming horses and gorgeous scenery, it was almost surreal. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLas Perlitas\u003c\/strong\u003e is a regional lot coordinated by The Coffee Quest, allowing them to separate and buy high quality Chiroso from producers who can’t grow enough volume to make their own exportable lot. This is great for farmers who will receive a higher price for a coffee that would otherwise get lost in a larger regional blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Chiroso varietal originated in Antioquia, a Colombian mutation of Ethiopian Landraces; similar to the origin of Pink Bourbon in the Huila region. We are stoked to get to try a regional snapshot from where it all began!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn average, coffees in this lot are fermented for 24-48hrs before being depulped. This will help to accentuate fruitier flavours and increase the complexity of the coffee. Coffee is then dried for 7-14 days, and then brought down to the buying station for sampling and tasting. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"22\"\u003eIn the Cup\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"23\"\u003eExpect a big, sweet \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"20\" data-path-to-node=\"23\"\u003eDamson Plum\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"36\" data-path-to-node=\"23\"\u003eCherry Coke \u003c\/b\u003eup front, a soft \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"73\" data-path-to-node=\"23\"\u003eLemon Cake\u003c\/b\u003e body in the middle, and a lingering \u003cb data-index-in-node=\"120\" data-path-to-node=\"23\"\u003eDark Chocolate\u003c\/b\u003e finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"24\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"24\"\u003eBrewing Recommendations:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"25\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"25,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"25,0,0\"\u003ePour-over:\u003c\/b\u003e 1:16 ratio, easy to work with, we love the 15g-250ml in the kalita wave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"25,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"25,1,0\"\u003eEspresso:\u003c\/b\u003e 18g-18.5g in \/ 37g-39g out \/ 27-30 seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HaveFun Coffee","offers":[{"title":"300g","offer_id":48530103140557,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"1kg","offer_id":48530103173325,"sku":null,"price":57.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2.2kg","offer_id":48530103206093,"sku":null,"price":123.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0622\/3138\/0173\/files\/Las_Perlitas_300g-1_6b6f6d4d-5276-4f87-80ec-ec051b5eaccf.jpg?v=1770303500","url":"https:\/\/havefun.coffee\/en-us\/products\/las-perlitas-washed-chiroso-colombia","provider":"Have Fun.
