{"product_id":"colombia-finca-petrerito-washed-microlot","title":"Colombia Finca Potrerito Washed Microlot","description":"\u003ch3\u003eGrown high in the mountains of Cauca, Colombia, this exceptional coffee comes from the indigenous Nasa (Paéz) community of Pueblo Nuevo. Cultivated on small, shaded farms at high altitude, the slow maturation of the coffee cherries allows complex sugars and flavours to develop, resulting in a coffee with a rich body, vibrant acidity, and remarkable balance. Produced by Leonel Campo and his family —  members of Comecafe Cooperative — this lot showcases the quality from one of Colombia's most exciting coffee-growing regions.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eThis lot comes from Leonel Campo's Potrerito farm, the newest and most productive of his three small coffee farms. Together, Las Delicias, Guardualito, and Potrerito comprise just 0.8 hectares of coffee-producing land, reflecting the small-scale farming traditions of Pueblo Nuevo.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eLocated within an indigenous reservation in the municipality of Caldono, the region has only recently become recognised for coffee production as changing local microclimates have made cultivation increasingly viable. The combination of high elevations, native shade trees, and meticulous farming practices creates ideal conditions for producing high-quality specialty coffee.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eLeonel's commitment to quality is evident throughout his farm management. Coffee grows beneath a canopy of plantain and Leucaena trees, which provide natural shade, promote biodiversity, and contribute to healthier soil and slower cherry development. The result is a clean, expressive cup with a full body, pleasant acidity, and the distinctive characteristics that have made Cauca coffees sought after by specialty coffee buyers around the world.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eLeonel is also part of the \u003ca href=\"bailiescoffee.com\/products\/colombia-comepcafe-washed-single-origin?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=comecpafe\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003eComepcafe \u003c\/a\u003ecooperative, which supports local producers through agronomy assistance, good agricultural practices, and specialty coffee training.

Freshly picked cherries are pulped on the farm before undergoing fermentation to remove the fruit mucilage. The coffee is then thoroughly washed using clean water, resulting in a bright, clean cup profile that highlights the character of the terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eFollowing washing, the coffee remains in its protective parchment layer and is dried slowly on concrete patios for two to three weeks. This careful drying process allows the beans to reach a stable moisture content of 11–12%, ensuring quality and consistency. Once drying is complete, the coffee is delivered to the Comepcafe cooperative, where the parchment is removed and the beans are prepared for export.\u003cbr\u003eThe careful washed process enhances clarity, sweetness, and acidity, allowing the unique characteristics of Leonel's high-altitude coffee to shine in every cup.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caldono, Cauca\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety: \u003c\/strong\u003eCastillo, Supremo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess: \u003c\/strong\u003eWashed\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2000-2100 masl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAroma:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pistachio\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pomelo, White Sugar \u0026amp; Chamomile\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAcidity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium\/High\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-canvas-width=\"984.8536558906491\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003eAlthough we recommend purchasing coffees as wholebean for freshness, you can also purchase this Microlot to be ground for your preferred brew method.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBEST SERVED\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(34, 51, 43);\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0372\/3985\/files\/filter2-01.png?14917605752375113149\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0372\/3985\/files\/aero2.png?14917605752375113149\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0372\/3985\/files\/Chemex.png?14917605752375113149\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Bailies Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 250g","offer_id":57027130786170,"sku":"CREML0352","price":13.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whole Bean \/ 1 Kg","offer_id":57027130818938,"sku":"CML0352","price":52.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ground Coffee for Filter \/ 250g","offer_id":57027130851706,"sku":"CFIML0352-2","price":13.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ground French Press \/ 250g","offer_id":57027130884474,"sku":"CFIML0352-3","price":13.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0372\/3985\/files\/ColombiaFincaPotrerito.png?v=1782821339","url":"https:\/\/www.bailiescoffee.com\/products\/colombia-finca-petrerito-washed-microlot","provider":"Bailies Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
