Recipes

Every year, we like to have a little fun for Halloween — and this year’s release is a treat. This super-limited Sidra from El Diviso in Pitalito, Huila, Colombia, brings an explosion of candy-like sweetness that fits the season perfectly. It’s a collaboration with our longtime partners at Cata Export and showcases the innovative processing and precision that El Diviso has become known for.

Expect a wild, playful cup that’s bursting with cherry gummies, strawberry belts and sour patch kids — an absolute flavor trip for any coffee lover. This is not your everyday brew — it’s our Halloween treat for the adventurous.

El Diviso is the shared project of Nestor and Adrian Lasso, who took over their family farm five years ago and joined forces with Jhoan Vergara to combine their two family farms near Pitalito, Huila. Through their partnership with Cata Export, they’ve developed pioneering fermentation techniques and gained international recognition, with their coffees winning Brewers Cup championships across Europe.

Nestor, originally from Normandía, Huila, grew up around coffee but discovered a renewed passion through specialty production — a path that allowed him and many young producers to find both stability and creativity in coffee. Their work with Cata Export continues to push boundaries, redefining what Colombian coffee can be.

This lot is a Natural Processed Sidra, meticulously crafted through El Diviso’s signature controlled fermentations.

  • Manual selection of perfectly ripe cherries
  • 36 hours of controlled oxidation at 25°C
  • 24 hours of anaerobic fermentation in sealed containers at 16–18°C
  • Drying in dehumidifying machines at a maximum of 45°C
  • Resting for 60 hours before final drying to 11% moisture

This method enhances fruit intensity and structure, delivering a vibrant, syrupy cup that balances sweetness and acidity in a stunning way.

Playful, juicy, and indulgent — like diving into a bag of candy.

Notes of cherry gummies, strawberry belts, and sour patch kids dominate the profile, supported by a silky, syrupy body. The result is an unforgettable, fun, and flavor-packed cup that will light up your Halloween morning (or night).

Please note that our recipes are just guidelines of how we like to brew these coffees. Grinders, water, and equipment are some of the variables that could change the end result. So take these recipes as starting points, but not as absolute goal.

Espresso:
We pull our espressos on a Linea Mini R, with water around 100 ppm and a Mahlkönig X54 grinder.
We like to pull this coffee at 18g in, 42g out in about 28 seconds.


Filter coffee:
We brew our filter coffees on a plastic V60, with CAFEC ABACA filters and Third Wave Water light roast water.
We like to brew this coffee with 15g of coffee, water at 92°C and a medium grind size.

  • 0:00 – Pour 50g of water and let it bloom for 45 seconds.
  • 0:45 – Pour 100g of water in a circular motion.
  • 1:25 – Pour 100g of water in a circular motion.

Total brew time should be 2:00 to 2:15.

Enjoy the coffee!
