Vibrant, expressive, and entirely unforgettable.

What it tastes like: An absolute explosion of tropical fruit and rich, refined sweetness. Expect vivid notes of exotic mangosteen and vibrant passiflora (passion fruit) layered with a deep, sugar cane sweetness and an expressive floral-fruity aroma. A bright acidity lifts a creamy body, with a long, juicy, and clean finish. 

Why we love it: Finca Milán is here to show what happens when heritage meets radical processing innovation. Producer Julio Andrés Quiceno is a true master of experimental fermentation. With this "NG" (New Generation) lot, he pairs a familiar varietal base of Caturra and Castillo with a highly controlled Nitrogen Co-Fermentation. This innovative infusion-style process builds an incredibly distinct and exotic sensory profile, unlocking intense tropical and creamy notes rarely found in traditional lots. It’s a masterclass in how cutting-edge processing can elevate classic varieties into something truly extraordinary.

Best way to drink it: Its explosive fruit character and sugary sweetness truly shine as a pour-over (filter), giving the complex tropical notes of mangosteen and passiflora plenty of room to breathe. However, it also pulls a spectacular, fruit-forward espresso. No matter how you brew it, prepare to be surprised.

This particular lot brings together meticulously harvested Caturra and Castillo varieties, coaxed through a precise, controlled intervention that earned a phenomenal specialty score of 88 points.

About the Process – NG

This coffee is classified as an infusion process, a style that aims to build a more distinctive and aromatic cup profile through a highly controlled intervention during processing. In this type of coffee, the goal is usually to intensify specific flavor expressions and create a more exotic sensory experience, often with elevated fruit character, sweetness, and aromatic impact. In this lot, the profile points toward tropical and floral-fruity notes, supported by a sugar-like sweetness.

Caturra and Castillo varieties were used in its production. Together, they provide a balanced and reliable base that supports the more expressive character developed through the infusion-style process.

Brew Guide

FILTER:

Coffee: 20 g
Water: 320g
(Coffee-to-water ratio 1:16)
Time: 2:45
Water Temperature: 92°C (201°F)
Grind: Medium (appr. 650 μm)

Tips for Filter coffee:
- Finer grind = longer brew time, fuller and more intense flavor.
- Coarser grind = shorter brew time, lighter and more delicate flavor.

- Lower coffee-to-water ratio (more coffee, less water) = fuller and more intense flavor.
- Higher coffee-to-water ratio (less coffee, more water) = more delicate and balanced flavor.

- Higher temperature (93–95°C) = more sweetness, more body.
- Lower temperature (90–91°C) = less bitterness, more acidity.
