Sourcing Details-
Gustavo Ventura has a 3.5-acre farm called Finca Dinorita in the community of Sisiguara. Gustavo has participated in monthly educational seminars where Catracha provides guidance for farm management, harvesting and coffee processing that is focused on quality. Traditionally, farmers in Santa Elena have sold their coffee in cherry to a middleman, eliminating the possibility of earning better prices based on the quality of the coffee.
Processing Details-
This is Gustavo’s first year selling coffee through Catracha and he has quickly learned to process coffee using his own micro-mill so that he can de-pulp, ferment and dry his coffee before delivering it to Catracha Coffee. After harvesting, sorted ripe cherries are macerated overnight and de-pulped the next day, then fermented in a cement tank for 24 hours, washed and placed on raised beds to dry over a 15-day period.
