  • About El Paraiso Anaerobic Washed | Colombia

    This is an incredible coffee is back for 2024! Produced using a complex and very unique post harvest technique:

    1. Coffee was carefully hand harvested to select only very ripe cherry.
    2. The coffee was washed and soaked in water for 36 hours
    3. Coffee was pulped to remove the fruit
    4. The coffee with mucilage was fermented with added micro-organisms for 12 hours
    5. Washed with cold water using a 'thermal shock' process
    6. Controlled drying using a mechanical de-humidifier

    This two stage fermentation process creates some incredible tasting notes that include cherry, raspberry, red berries and floral notes.

Good coffee

It's a good coffee overall, just lacks the strong fruity/floral/boozy notes expected of Anaerobic coffees.

Thanks for purchasing this coffee. It's a common misconception that all anaerobic fermented coffees will be boozy and super fruity. Anaerobic/carbonic naturals will often have this kind of character but anaerobic washed or honey processed coffees tend to be more subtle and will showcase a different taste profile. If you prefer the boozy, very fruity options I'd suggest looking out for our anaerobic or carbonic processed natural coffees.

This is hands down the best coffee I have ever ordered from this place and although it is pricey, is definitely worth it

Loved this coffee!!!

First purchase from this company, so a complete unknown. Such a well roasted coffee. Great acidity and sweetness at the same time. Fragrance of peach when you first brew the coffee. Would recommend to anyone. Mind blown.

Shame I only bought 250g

Bought as a fill in for my monthly 1kg subscription as I had run out! It is one of the best coffees I have tasted for some time.
Fab as espresso but mindblowing as an Aeropress recipe. Follow the method from European coffee Trip. https://youtu.be/SEOOCkU01A8

Excellent!

An absolute joy to brew and drink. Brewing V60 and Aeropress in the mid to high 80s brought out some wonderful fruity notes. Best coffee of the year so far.

Amazing coffee

Lovely stuff:) Red berries in the flavour, full bodied, clean, naturally sweet but not sickly at all. I brewed this coffee in V60 and it gave me bright fresh strawberries in the aftertaste - unbelievable! Absolutely recommended to all the filter lovers.

Very sweet and refreshing

The aroma of the beans is already very refreshing and sweet,
The taste is very clean and the acidity is very present, much more than the bitterness

I had 2 cup of coffees with those beans that blew me away:
- One with Aeropress where I got the cherry
- One with V60 but on cold brew and the coffee was just unbelievably tasty and sweet :)

I would order again and again from Horsham but I have a full list of UK/Irish roasters I want taste as well ;)
I will follow closely any amazing coffee from Horsham as the roasting is AA class

Thanks Horsham team

So good!!

This is delicious. Started off well in V60, lots of cherry and raspberry up front and then more orange notes as it cools. Have now brewed in Kalita Wave and the raspberry flavour is amazing!

Incredible flavour

What a great coffee this is! It blew me away from the first sip, a taste and flavour like nothing I experienced before with a coffee. More sweet than bitter, closer to tea than to normal coffee and an overall impression that I'm "sipping" cake, not coffee. Highly recommended!
