A message from Ómra

We’ve long admired the work of the team at Finca El Paraíso, whose experimental processing methods consistently push the boundaries of flavour while retaining a deep sense of structure and sweetness.

This coffee, YN-09, is a stunning example of their precision and control. It showcases how meticulous fermentation and thermal shock processing can preserve the elegance of the Castillo variety while revealing entirely new dimensions in the cup.

Expect a structured, refined profile where red apple brightness meets silky pear sweetness and a smooth caramel finish. A beautiful balance of classic and modern.

Producer Story

Behind this coffee is the Bermúdez family, producers at the forefront of Colombia’s modern coffee movement. At their farm Finca El Paraíso, located at 1960 MASL in Piendamó, the focus is on turning great coffee into great flavour - by design.

Brothers Alex and Samuel combine years of agricultural knowledge with state-of-the-art fermentation equipment and a deep respect for craft. Each coffee is developed through carefully managed microbial environments, controlled temperatures, and oxygen-free tanks that let the chosen yeast do its work with precision.

The result is not just complexity - it’s repeatable complexity. Coffees like YN-09 show what’s possible when science and sensory mastery meet.

From the cupping table

From the first aroma, YN-09 is bright and inviting. The fragrance evokes caramel, red apple, and hints of soft tropical fruit. On the palate, it’s juicy and clean with a crisp acidity - think pear and starfruit - layered over a rounded body and caramel sweetness.

The aftertaste is long and syrupy with notes of stewed apple and apricot, giving a tactile finish that’s both creamy and precise. It’s the kind of coffee that evolves as it cools, offering new perspectives with every sip. A perfect showcase of controlled fermentation that still feels natural and expressive.
