Colombia CGLE Sidra — Double Washed (1,750m)

A sparkling, competition-driven cup from CGLE (Café Granja La Esperanza)—one of Colombia’s most influential producers, known for champion-level lots and rare varieties such as Sidra.  

This Double Washed Sidra is all about clarity and lift: crisp citrus brightness, transparent sweetness, and a clean, refreshing finish that keeps you reaching for another sip. “Cherry” sweetness meets a zesty “lemonade” snap, layered with a fresh lemongrass aroma.

About the Variety: Sidra

Sidra is prized for its vibrant acidity and floral-fruit expression, most commonly grown in South America—especially Ecuador and Colombia—often at high elevations similar to this lot’s 1,750m. 

Process: Double Washed (Double Soak)

“Double washed” (often associated with the Kenyan-style double soak) includes an extra clean-water soak after fermentation and washing, helping create a cup that feels extra clean, crisp, and defined. 

Brewing (Recommended)

• Filter: lemonade-like sparkle, clean cherry sweetness

• Espresso (modern): bright citrus top + sweet cherry, very clean finish
