Colombia Julio Andrés Quiceno | Finca Milan

Bright, bold and hard to forget.

Julio Andrés Quiceno is a master of coffee processing. For this coffee, called NG, he used nitrogen co-fermentation. The beans ferment in a tank with nitrogen and no oxygen. This makes them much sweeter and gives them a stronger smell.

What it tastes like: A burst of tropical fruit. Mangosteen and passion fruit, with deep sugar cane sweetness. It smells of flowers and fruit. Bright and creamy, with a long, juicy, clean finish.

Why we love it: Julio runs Finca Milán. "NG" stands for New Generation. He takes well-known varieties, Caturra and Castillo, and uses a very new process. The result is tropical and creamy, a taste you rarely find in normal coffee.

Best way to drink it: As pour-over (filter). That gives the mangosteen and passion fruit room to shine. It also makes an amazing fruity espresso, and it goes great with milk.
