It begins with floating and selection of only the ripest cherries, followed by 48 hours of aerobic oxidation while still in cherry, and then 12 hours of submerged fermentation at around 25°C. After pulping, the coffee undergoes anaerobic fermentation in sealed bags or containers for 60 hours at a controlled temperature of 16–18°C.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe defining step is the thermal shock. Thermal shock occurs at the end of fermentation, when the coffee is heated in its own juices, causing the pores of the seeds to expand and absorb more of the fermentation liquid's aromatic esters. The coffee is then rinsed with cold water, which causes the pores to contract and lock in those absorbed compounds, while also halting enzymatic activity, similar to the blanching process used in cooking vegetables. After washing, the beans are dried in canopies or mechanical drums at a maximum temperature of 30–36°C for 8 to 12 days until reaching optimal humidity levels.\u003cspan class=\"inline-flex\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe result is a coffee of extraordinary complexity — clean, structured, and intensely aromatic, with the terroir of Huila and the character of the Typica Mejorado variety fully amplified by Jhoan's signature process.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sunspell Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45467367473331,"sku":null,"price":165.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/7470\/4563\/files\/Sunspell-LasFloresJV-TMej-2026.png?v=1778964399"},{"product_id":"finca-inmaculada-fellows-program-natural-anaerobic","title":"Finca Inmaculada | Fellows Program — Natural Anaerobic","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem; height: 133px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.571429%; height: 19px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.383275%; height: 19px;\"\u003eJasmine, Peach, Lime\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.571429%; height: 19px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.383275%; height: 19px;\"\u003eValle del Cauca, Colombia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.571429%; height: 19px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.383275%; height: 19px;\"\u003eNatural Anaerobic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.571429%; height: 19px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.383275%; height: 19px;\"\u003eGeisha\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.571429%; height: 19px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAltitude:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.383275%; height: 19px;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1940masl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.571429%; height: 19px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSourced from:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.383275%; height: 19px;\"\u003eAnd Sons\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 28.571429%; height: 19px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRest:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 70.383275%; height: 19px;\"\u003e4-6 Weeks Recommended\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the cup\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe cup opens with peach and jasmine aromatics, carried by a soft lime acidity.

The farm sits at around 1,700–1,850 metres above sea level, and its name is a fitting reflection of its environment. The farm's excellent location allows it to benefit from the air currents that flow in from the Laboyos Valley, where they meet the fresh mountain air of the natural reserve surrounding the farm, creating ideal conditions for producing exceptional coffee.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAll cherries harvested at Las Nubes are carefully measured for degrees Brix, ensuring only fruit at peak ripeness is selected.

The coffee is then washed thoroughly to remove excess mucilage. Following washing, the thermal shock step is applied — hot water is used to open the pores of the beans and allow the aromatic compounds developed during fermentation to be fully absorbed, before cold water rapidly contracts those pores and locks those flavours in. The coffee is then dried in direct sunlight for 3 to 4 days, before being moved to canopies for a further 22 to 23 days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sunspell Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45467482259635,"sku":null,"price":205.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/7470\/4563\/files\/Sunspell-CS-Gesha-2026.png?v=1778964372"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/7470\/4563\/collections\/Sunspell-Colombia_2x_d72d66fd-192d-441f-8c1c-4e9d30dc9e63.png?v=1779654301","url":"https:\/\/sunspell.coffee\/collections\/colombia.oembed","provider":"Sunspell Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
