From DAK

This Colombian Java Anaerobic Natural from Rogelio Espinoza is extremely balance, complex and juicy with tasting notes of cherry juice, wild strawberries and lemongrass.

Cuatro Vientos is a family-owned business, offering microlots and regional blends. Founded in 2018, the company was named after the first farm owned by the Gonzalez family, and therefore, holds a special meaning for them. Yonatan Gonzalez, the company’s General Manager, grew up on that farm, and is a third-generation producer with a background in logistics. His father used to commercialise coffee, as a classic, Colombian parchment buyer. The company operates in different parts of Huila, which gives them access to coffee for 6 months per year. They have 3 purchasing points, located in each region they work in: Acevedo, Santa Maria, and Algeciras. They do not own a private drying mill, and therefore use infrastructure located in Acevedo. Most of the coffees we source from Cuatro Vientos are washed, as they only produce naturals upon request. We have also bought some special preps, such as honeys and anaerobic naturals. After being handpicked, their cherries are floated and then fermented in plastic bags or tanks. Their coffee is traditionally dried on ‘marquesinas’, mechanical dryers, or patios.
