HISTORY: 
Situated in Gaitania, Tolima, an area historically impacted by conflict and renowned as the birthplace of Colombian coffee, Emmanuel, a dedicated coffee grower, embarked on a venture. In 2016, in collaboration with his family, they established a coffee processing center aimed at assisting over 15 villages in Gaitania, facilitating local coffee growers in bean processing. Forest Coffee and Emmanuel joined forces in 2019 to establish the Black Condor Project, providing support to farmers in Gaitania affected by guerrilla warfare. We regularly conduct workshops with producers to emphasize quality and cover processes such as fermentation, drying, and cupping of their own coffees. The culmination of these efforts is the exquisite Black Condor Coffee.
PROCESS DESCRIPTION: 
The process begins with embracing mucilage for 24 hours. The beans then rest on a drying patio, fostering a harmonious profile. After a 15 to 25-day drying period, they undergo a stabilization process before proceeding to the milling process, which results in a consistent profile.
