Colombia - Las Perlitas

What makes this washed coffee unique is its fermentation process. While washed coffees are typically known for their clean and crisp profiles, Las Perlitas Fruity Profile is carefully crafted to highlight the depth and fruit complexity often associated with naturals. Fermentation times range from 24 to 72 hours, depending on environmental factors, allowing for enhanced sweetness and acidity before the coffee is fully washed.

Drying takes place over 7 to 14 days, ensuring a slow and controlled process that locks in flavor.

Expect a juicy and expressive cup bursting with notes of raspberry, ripe mango, peach iced tea, and hibiscus. Bright, floral, and refreshingly complex — we just love it!

At Boo! we roast all our coffees as omni roast. That means they're designed to shine both as espresso and filter coffee. Follow our brew guides below to get the most out of Las Perlitas!
