san isidro is a washed bourbon from nariño, colombia, roasted by fidela coffee roasters. nariño sits at high altitude near the ecuadorian border, and washed processing keeps the cup clean and bright, which shows clearly here. expect sharp citrus upfront, lemon and grapefruit with a zesty edge, then peach and stone fruit in the mid-palate, and a winey quality that lingers alongside milk and dark chocolate in the finish. that mix of brightness and body makes it well suited to filter brewing, where the clarity of the wash process and the complexity of the bourbon varietal both come through without distraction.

san isidro leads with lemon, grapefruit, and citrus zest, then moves into peach and stone fruit with a winey quality, and finishes with milk and dark chocolate. it is bright and layered, with enough body to keep the sweetness grounded.
How is San Isidro grown and processed?
it is a bourbon varietal grown in nariño, colombia, a high-altitude region known for producing bright, structured coffees. it is washed processed, meaning the fruit is removed before drying, which produces a clean, clear cup that highlights the citrus and stone fruit character.
How should I brew San Isidro?
filter brewing, such as a pour over or batch brew, suits this coffee well, as it preserves the clean, bright qualities that washed processing produces. if you brew it as espresso, expect the citrus and winey notes to intensify, with the chocolate providing balance in the finish.
