During Bolivia's agricultural reform in the 1960s, the Caranavi region became known for rolling out coffee at a high volume - though often at the expense of quality. It wasn't until the early aughts, when international development agencies such as USAID began investing heavily in the region, that Caranavi farmers began to focus on coffee quality \u003cem\u003eabove\u003c\/em\u003e quantity, and it has become a much bigger part of the region's identity and culture in the years that followed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coffee in particular was grown by the Valverde-Aramayo family, mainstays in the Illimani community within Caranavi. They named their coffee farm, Finca Rosita, in honor and memory of their beloved matriarch, Rosa Angelica Aramayo. The 32-hectare farm sits high on the hills of Caranavi and is dedicated solely to coffee cultivation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTRUST THE PROCESS |\u003c\/strong\u003e After being handpicked at peak ripeness, this lot was fermented and dried in cherry at the wet mill. Anaerobic fermentation takes place in sealed tanks with airlocks, allowing for CO2 to be released without any oxygen being brought in. This fermentation lasts for 4-5 days and is determined by brix content (fermentation is stopped at 8 brix). The coffee is then spread out to dry on raised beds for 20-25 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTAKE A SIP |\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDon't let the processing scare you off - despite how it may sound, we'd classify this coffee as a relatively low-fermentation impact natural. It showcases soft florals, like hibiscus, and the fruit flavors lean into the tropical and dried side of things, reminding us of dried mangoes. Vibrant acidity is balanced by an abundance of sweetness, which shows up in each sip like dark honey or milk chocolate.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font_8\"\u003e___________________________________________________________________________\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin |\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCaranavi, Bolivia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer |\u003c\/strong\u003e Valverde-Aramayo family\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFarm |\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Finca Rosita\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProcess |\u003c\/strong\u003e Anaerobic Natural\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVariety |\u003c\/strong\u003e Catuai\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElevation |\u003c\/strong\u003e 1350-1740 masl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","offers":[{"title":"12oz","offer_id":50739260522809,"sku":"BWSO-FiR-AN12","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2lb","offer_id":50739260555577,"sku":"BWSO-FiR-AN02","price":68.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"5lb","offer_id":50739260588345,"sku":"BWSO-FiR-AN05","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2988\/2574\/files\/FincaRosita_AnaerobicNAtural_onlinecard_4x_963a1396-4291-4ddb-811c-dc094622d22d.png?v=1747245339","url":"https:\/\/www.blackwhiteroasters.mom\/products\/r-finca-rosita-anaerobic-natural","provider":"Black \u0026 White Coffee Roasters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
