CASTILLO by Naya

Detail

Together with her father Royman, Naya carries on the family tradition of growing coffee at the La Eneida farm in the Palmor area, high in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta mountains. The hand-picked, carefully selected cherries are processed with the washed method. A slightly darker roast brings out this Castillo's full body and its sweet notes of chocolate, almonds and marzipan.

Location
Palmor, Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia

Finca La Eneida lies in the Palmor area, high in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. The coffee grows at 1,300 to 2,000 metres.

The farm has been in the family for generations. The turning point came with covid. The family came back together on the farm and gave it a new direction. They brought in electricity and the internet and invested in better processing.

Today Naya and her father Royman run the farm together with her siblings. Each of them looks after their own lots.

Everything is picked by hand, and the pickers take only ripe cherries. That care at every step is what gives coffee from La Eneida its character.

    Maybe thanks to the darker roast it grinds more easily and is far less acidic than Palmor. Excellent for espresso. I was pleasantly surprised by the full bitter taste, even though I usually prefer fruitier varieties for filter. Smells of almonds. Recommend trying it.
    I chose a ratio of ground coffee to water of 1:2.5 - 1:3.

    I bought this coffee on your recommendation and I don't regret it. I decided, when I'm home and have time, that I want to treat myself to a really good coffee, prepare it calmly and drink it calmly, and that I don't want to sweeten it, that I really just want the delicious taste of coffee. All of this came true for me. The coffee is velvety, full and at the same time light. No killer kick. It's possible that you could make a very strong wake-up coffee with your heart pounding from it, but I don't crave anything like that. So far I use a "vietnamese" pot for preparation, which costs a few…
