Potosi Sidra #00627 Returns to XLIII Coffee

Sharing the Same Origin as Potosi Sidra #0334

Potosi Sidra #00627 is a specialty coffee lot grown from the Sidra variety—a natural hybrid of Arabica that blends the complex flavors of Bourbon with the clarity of Typica. Cultivated sustainably in the Valle del Cauca, at elevations ranging from 1,400 to 1,860 meters above sea level, this coffee benefits from ideal climatic conditions that shape its distinct flavor profile.

Like Potosi Sidra #0334, this lot undergoes washed (wet) processing at Potosi Farm, overseen by the dedicated team at Cafe Granja La Esperanza. With meticulous control over each stage, every coffee bean in this lot is optimized to preserve its natural purity and profound flavor complexity.

A Sharp, Multi-Layered Flavor Profile

Potosi Sidra #00627 brings a fresh variation to the symphony of flavors from Potosi. While the previous lot evoked a delicate garden of white flowers and ripe fruits, this coffee presents an even more vibrant expression. Its bright structure radiates energy, featuring rich malic acidity reminiscent of mangosteen and a high sweetness akin to sapodilla.

When hot, Potosi Sidra #00627 exudes gentle jasmine and tropical fruit aromas. The scent is as soft as morning mist drifting through leaves. Blending in, the sweet, creamy sapodilla melts on the palate, evoking ripe honey under the sun. As the temperature drops, a refreshing acidity emerges—a burst of juicy mangosteen, delicate melon, and crisp green apple. These elements harmonize like sunlit droplets falling into a thriving garden. Once the coffee fully cools, the lingering aftertaste unveils another dimension: mellow apricot, refined mangosteen, and velvety sapodilla—like the final traces of a radiant summer day still warming the skin.

Potosi Sidra #00627 not only carries the spirit of #0334 but elevates it—sharper, rounder, with crisp acidity and a juicy texture reminiscent of morning dew on just-ripened fruit. It offers both familiarity and surprise, akin to rediscovering an old melody played with a fresh, enchanting tone.

In the world of specialty coffee, an outstanding lot is not solely defined by a great variety or ideal altitude. It results from a strong partnership between producers and roasters—one built on trust, respect, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
