In The Cup
This is another crazy flavour bomb from the young genius, Edison Argote! Combining the naturally fruity and complex Kenyan variety, SL28 with his advanced washed process with yeast inoculation and thermal shock, this coffee is a belter. We’re enjoying a rose note like Turkish delight, tropical fruit flavours like passionfruit and mango and sweet herbal hints like an Italian digestif, giving this coffee an exotic and exciting character.
The Story
Edinson Argote is a young coffee producer from the Huila region of Colombia who grew up on his family’s farm, Quebraditas, where coffee farming has supported the family for generations. Together with Ángela Rojas, he has helped transform the farm into one of the region’s most exciting specialty coffee projects, combining traditional cultivation with highly technical and experimental processing methods. Much of Argote’s knowledge has come through years of hands-on experimentation, collaboration with other producers and exporters, and a genuine fascination with fermentation science and post-harvest processing.
Today, he is particularly recognised for his work with controlled fermentations, thermal shock processing, and yeast inoculation, using carefully monitored methods to better control and refine each stage of processing. Alongside this focus on innovation, sustainability also plays a major role at Quebraditas, with careful attention paid to soil health, water usage, and responsible farm management. The project also places strong importance on supporting local employment and helping create a more sustainable future for younger generations involved in coffee production across the region.
