  • About El Silencio Panela | Colombia

    This is a stunning high-cup score micro-lot produced from Pink Bourbon varietal trees grown by small-hold farmers at high altitudes in Colombia. Pink Bourbon is a rare varietal that has become well-known for producing incredible flavours.

    The washed process relies on a combination of multiple fermentation steps and pulping processes using water:
    The freshly picked cherries are dry fermented for 12hrs
    and the coffee is pulped to remove the outer skin and some of the mucilage. The coffee is then fermented for a second time for 24 hours in tanks soaked in water. Finally, the coffee is washed and dried on raised beds.

it's a lovely coffee

I know you recommend 15gr per 250 ml of water for all coffees. However, with speciality coffees a tip on the brewing ratio and method, or perhaps even a video with Horsham roasters, would be appreciated. It would help me to make sure I am making the best of a premium coffee, and I am getting the expected notes rather than treating it like an ephemeral coffee.

El Silencio Panela is suave

Bought it to try, and it is as it's name - quiet and gentle and tasting of brown sugar. I like that there is not much acidity too. Lovely, light and delicious coffee beans.

Beautifully juicy and fruity

Worth the extra spend for an exceptionally juicy coffee. Was tricky to dial in but now I’ve gotten there I’m getting a really pleasant raisin flavour with a nice amount of acidity. Even on opening the bag you can smell that this is going to be something a bit special!
