Coffee Description
Red Harmony is a truly harmonious example of perfectly craft anaerobic fermentation. Abounding in sweetness and creamy body with a wonderfully balanced fruity character.
The process begins with an anaerobic pre-fermentation, where whole cherries are stored in GainPro Bags for 36 hours. This step, conducted without oxygen, allows the cherries to develop complex flavors. After pre-fermentation, the coffee is depulped, leaving the mucilage intact, and then undergoes a 36-hour anaerobic fermentation in tanks with a relief valve. This controlled fermentation enhances the natural sweetness and body of the coffee.
Once fermentation is complete, the beans are dried on raised beds under the sun for 15 days. This slow drying process ensures that the coffee maintains its vibrant flavors while reaching optimal moisture levels. After drying, the coffee is stabilized on tarps for 7 days, allowing the flavors to fully mature and harmonize.

About Cecila Camacho of Colombia
Cecilia Camacho is originally from the department of Huila. She comes from a coffee-growing family and is the only woman among five siblings, which is why she has always been connected to coffee.

Her husband is originally from Villa Gómez, Cundinamarca. He arrived in the region with his father and brothers in 1959 as a result of the Colombian conflict. His father worked for many years in the coffee-growing area. Orlando has been working in coffee since 1988, and in 2007 they acquired the "El Paraíso" farm, where they grow varieties such as Colombia, Cenicafé 1, and Castillo.
Their son, Camilo Babativa, works on the farm as well, as they have focused on passing down the family tradition. Their dream is to achieve a generational transition so that Camilo can carry on the legacy
