Coffee Review: 93 Points
Blind Assessment
Spice-toned, richly sweet-savory. POG, pink peppercorn, lemon verbena, oak, frankincense in aroma and cup. Gentle, round acidity; plush, satiny mouthfeel. Notes of POG and pink peppercorn are front and center in the brisk finish.
Notes
Produced by smallholding farmers, from local landrace varieties of Arabica, and processed at the Gigeso Station using the natural method (dried in the whole fruit). RamsHead Coffee Roasters is a family-owned company operated by Bozeman, Montana natives Patrick and Sarah Flemming that specializes in direct trade microlot coffees.

Bottom Line
A uniquely composed Colombia co-ferment with a spice throughline supported by sweet herbs and resiny aromatics.
This amazing coffee has strong notes of berries and spices. The co-fermentation process has masterfully been administered by Brayan Alvear, and each sip is simply magical.
COFFEE BACKGROUND
Brayan Alvear, a producer from Acevedo, a municipality in Huila, Colombia, specifically in San Adolfo, is a rural coffee growing area and one of the areas that produce the most coffee. His father taught him all the virtues and knowledge that the land gives us, giving us the tools to be able to work in the future, since he was 13 years old his father took him after school to learn all about coffee, which years later made him understand that it was what he was passionate about and wanted to do when he grew up. This year he created a project with more than 60 coffee growers among them his family, who collect and sell their coffee at a better price in cherry, is strong work since they themselves do the collection throughout the municipality. Finally, together with Forest and the Ancla processing station, we process them with fruit fermentation, achieving unique profiles.
