Nestor Lasso is the third generation of his family to grow coffee. His grandfather, José Uribe, was the founder of the farm El Diviso.

Through the hard work of the entire family and constant savings, they were able to build the infrastructure needed to process differentiated coffees, always in search of better quality—both in their coffee and in their lives.

After a long period of trial and error, he managed to standardize various processes, which led to better income and allowed them to plant new varieties that further improved quality.

One of his dreams is to produce specialty coffee that reaches people all around the world.

Anaerobic Natural Process

Steps: 

1. The coffee is picked carefully to get only very ripe cherries that tend to be between 24 and 26 brix. The over and under ripe cherries are removed (hand sorted).

2. The coffee undergoes an oxidation process for 48 hours in plastic cans, where the leachates and the cherries are mixed. At the end of this process the pH of the coffee is 4.5.

3. Floating process: the coffee is floated to rid impurities and any hollow beans and unwanted materials. This is done with cold water (10-12 degrees Celsius).

4. Thermal shock: The cherries are washed with water at 50 degrees Celsius and immediately introduced into plastic cans.

5. Anaerobic fermentation: The cherries are stored in sealed cans for 80 hours at 35 degrees Celsius. A saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast type T58 is added to the cherries (1g of yeast per 5kg of cherry). This yeast is commonly used in the beer brewing industry to strengthen beer profiles.

6. Drying process: the coffee is removed from the cans and taken to a mechanical drying system to dehydrate the cherries during 12 hours. Finally, it is moved to a parabolic drying system for approximately 15 days or until target moisture is reached.
