Finca El Paraíso, located in Piendamó, Cauca, Colombia, is a world-renowned specialty coffee farm defined by its philosophy of "Paradise grown by science." Founded by producer Diego Bermúdez and managed on the ground today by his cousin, Daniel Bermúdez, the estate operates as a fully integrated coffee production laboratory. It combines high-altitude cultivation with an advanced technological ecosystem that includes an on-site microbiology lab, wet mill, condensation drying facilities, and a sensory laboratory. By studying microbiology, the farm employs an exclusive yeast-mediated biocatalytic process to control the complex interactions between yeasts and bacteria during fermentation, precisely unlocking specific aromatic precursors and flavor profiles in every batch.
As pioneers in modern coffee processing, Finca El Paraíso created the renowned Thermal Shock technique as well as proprietary condensation drying equipment. These innovations utilize sealed bioreactors with precise control over temperature, pH, and local yeast strains, followed by a proprietary thermal shock washing method to lock in incredible flavor density and aromatic structure.
ABOUT THE PROCESS:
The process begins with harvesting overripe coffee cherries, which, due to their extended contact with the beans, absorb more fruity flavors from the pulp.
The cherries then undergo a short fermentation of about 12 hours before being depulped. After depulping, a liquid pulp extract is added, and the beans continue fermenting in this liquid environment for an additional 48 hours. After that, the coffee is washed with thermal shock.
Finally, the coffee is dried using a dehumidifier to carefully remove moisture. This helps preserve its delicate flavor notes, prevents over-oxidation of the beans, and halts metabolic activity to avoid over-fermentation.
