Not a papaya. Just acts like one.

A rare Colombian variety with a fruit's name and the nerve to taste like it. Dried whole on raised beds at Finca Pachamama, Huila.

Very few bags exist; some of them found a frog.

Variety: Rare Papayo
Process: Natural · raised-bed dried

Light, for filter. The fruit is already in the bean; the roast only has to stay out of the way.

SCA cup score: 87.5

V60 — 16 g / 250 ml, 92 °C, medium grind, 2:30. Batch brew — 60 g / litre.

Roasted as a light Nordic-style omni roast — a profile built for filter, with a long, gentle caramelisation at a lower finishing temperature. It keeps the origin's acidity, clarity and aromatics intact, and it happily travels to other preparations.

You can also try other brewing methods — the omni roast leaves room to experiment.

Use a precise grinder and adjust to the cup. Each coffee may need a different setting.

Making coffee is an art at every stage. At the final stage, we collaborate with an artist on an original oil painting that subtly shares this coffee’s story. Its print on your bag is a small collectible; a share of every bag returns to the artist’s studio.

Frog Facts

Natural · raised-bed dried — The cherry dries whole in the sun, so the fruit sugars stay with the bean — sweeter, heavier, more berry-like.
Grown at 1,600 – 1,750 masl.

Only coffee that passes goes into bags. Batches that fall short are still good coffee — they go to NGOs and social organisations instead of the bin. How we check
