Elias and his brother Shady run El Vergel Estate and founded \u003ca href=\"coffeegreenbeans.com\"\u003eForest Coffee\u003c\/a\u003e, Following this we are now releasing a coffee as a permanent fixture for the future, a single farm, decaffeinated at origin, and fully traceable back to the family who grew it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEl Vergel Estate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eCondor comes from El Vergel in Fresno, Tolima. The farm started out growing avocado, when the crop began to fail, Elias' mother Martha started planting coffee between the avocado trees and learned to wash and sell the coffee in Fresno, the nearest town. The family planted coffee properly at El Vergel in 2010 and took their first successful harvest in 2015. In 2017, frustrated by the local market, Martha, Shady and Elias went looking for ways to add value to their coffee and close the distance between growers and roasters. That became Forest Coffee in 2019, now a network of around 250 coffee growing families across four projects in Colombia. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis coffee never leaves Colombia for processing, and the value stays in the producing country.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAfter washing, the green coffee travels to the Descafecol plant in Manizales, where it is steamed to remove the silverskin and open the pores, then moistened with high mountain spring water under controlled time and temperature. The beans are submerged in natural ethyl acetate derived from sugarcane, which circulates through and selectively removes the caffeine. Gentle temperatures and low pressure preserve the beans' natural flavours and soluble solids, and a final steaming clears any residual ethyl acetate. Caffeine ends up at 0.1%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe result is a rounded, nutty cup with a clean citrus lift and real body behind it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/b\u003e Almond Biscotti, Citrus Acidity, Chocolate and Cane Sugar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Elias \u0026amp; Shady Bayter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/b\u003e El Vergel Estate, Fresno, Tolima, Colombia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVariety:\u003c\/b\u003e Red \u0026amp; Yellow Caturra\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eAltitude:\u003c\/b\u003e 1,450 MASL\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eProcess:\u003c\/b\u003e Washed \/ EA Sugarcane Decaf\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bean Coffee","offers":[{"title":"Whole Beans \/ 250g","offer_id":56851916620162,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-250GB-WB","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Whole Beans \/ 1kg","offer_id":56851916652930,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-1KG-WB","price":31.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cafetiere \/ 250g","offer_id":56851916685698,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-250GB-CFT","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Chemex \/ 250g","offer_id":56851916718466,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-250GB-CHE","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"V60 \/ 250g","offer_id":56851916751234,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-250GB-V60","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Clever Dripper \/ 250g","offer_id":56851916784002,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-250GB-CLV","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Filter (Filter Brewers) \/ 250g","offer_id":56851916816770,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-250GB-FLT","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Aeropress \/ 250g","offer_id":56851916849538,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-250GB-AER","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Moka Pot \/ 250g","offer_id":56851916882306,"sku":"DCF-CONDOR-250GB-POT","price":11.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/6341\/2822\/files\/BeanProductimages_CondorDecaf_1a88419f-9fde-4ab8-961c-33180570deff.webp?v=1787578999","url":"https:\/\/www.beancoffee.co.uk\/products\/colombia-condor-decaf","provider":"Liverpool Coffee Roasters Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
