Leonid Ramirez, Natural
Black cherry, rum and raisin & strawberry.
Natural processing allows the fruit character of Leonid Ramirez’s coffee to shine at full volume. Ripe cherries are carefully dried whole, slowly concentrating sweetness and building rich, layered flavour in the cup. From his farm in the mountains of Génova, Quindío, Leonid continues to refine his approach to processing with each harvest. Over the eight years we’ve worked together, his coffees have shown remarkable year on year improvement as both farming and fermentation techniques evolve. This natural lot is bold, fruit driven and deeply satisfying. In the cup, expect decadent notes of black cherry, rum and raisin, with a lively strawberry sweetness.
